Additional Information : The SCOUT V2 and the SCOUT COMPACT TD (Take-Down) are both very similar in design to our APEX centerfire rifles, but without the interchangeable barrel capability. So, for the hunter who wants a high-quality single shot rifle in only one caliber, a SCOUT is the ideal choice. Sleek, lightweight, and easy to operate, the SCOUT sets a new standard for affordable single shot hunting rifles. The stocks are lightweight and 100% ambidextrous, plus they feature CVA’s CrushZone Recoil pad – a real plus for heavier calibers, like the .35 Whelen. The SCOUT V2 sports either a 22” or 25” (heavier calibers) fluted barrel that is constructed of 416 grade stainless steel. The SCOUT COMPACT TD is a shorter and lighter version of the V2 (1” shorter stock and 2” shorter barrel) that completely disassembles with no tools for easy storage and transport in its handy carry case. While it’s a perfect deer rifle for the smaller stature hunter, it’s also great for anyone as an easy-to-maneuver truck gun, or even as an emergency/survival rifle. All SCOUT rifles feature a genuine DuraSight®Dead-On™ one-piece scope mount as standard equipment.

Introduced in 1964, the 223 Remington is the civilian version of the 5.56x45mm NATO cartridge. Although very similar to the 222 Remington it has a slightly longer case and a shorter neck, giving it greater powder capacity and thus higher velocity--which was necessary to meet military penetration requirements at longer range. NOTE: 223 Remington ammunition may be safely fired in any 5.56x45mm chamber, but 5.56x45mm ammunition SHOULD NOT BE USED in a 223 chamber! Standard is a 55-grain bullet at 3240 feet per second, with lighter bullets somewhat faster and heavier bullets a bit slower. The 223 is the most popular 22 centerfire today, and possiby the most popular centerfire cartridge. Ammunition choices are legion, as are choices in firearms. The 223 is an accurate cartridge ideally suited for varmint hunting out to beyond 300 yards, and with heavy-bullet loads designed for the purpose is used effectively by many deer hunters. — Craig Boddington
