Cascade Varmint Hunter Lede

CVA has introduced its Cascade Varmint Hunter rifle. Tailor-made for varmint hunting specialists, the Cascade Varmint Hunter features a medium-heavy barrel contour and a fully featured stock with a flat, wide fore-end and customizable length-of-pull (LOP). It includes a higher capacity magazine than a standard Cascade, specifically to improve efficiency while varmint hunting, ensuring more shooting and less loading.

Whether planning on calling coyotes, hunting prairie dogs, wood chucks or any other vermin, the Cascade Varmint Hunter is up to the take. An adjustable comb allows hunters to get the proper scope alignment every time, no matter their stature. This feature rich rifle also comes equipped with a 20 MOA rail, meaning it is not only easy to mount an optic, but easier still to dial out for those long shots when tackling predators at long range. The fluted barrel has a Cerakote finish to resist corrosion in the harshest of varmint hunting conditions, even boasting a muzzle threaded to standard 5/8x24 TPI for the easy addition of a suppressor. This can help keep from spooking additional varmint when targeting them from a long way off. The stock is finished in low profile RealTree Hillside, which blends nicely in open environments. Two swivel studs on its fore-end pair nicely with the one on its buttstock, making it easy to mount not just a sling, but a bipod as well.

The Varmint Hunter's weight starts around nine pounds, allowing the shooter to stay steady on the target, without being a boat anchor to carry. The barrel length is between 20 and 22 inches, depending on chambering, making it easy to swing on moving game. The gun comes chambered in .223 Remington, .22-250 Remington, 204 Ruger and .243 Winchester.
