CVA Scout followed me home

Cool! Will get it set up and loctite it down.

300 BLK was real tempting too...243 must be very versatile. Hope they smarten up and make a 7.62x39 stainless lol

Diggin the 450 BM for being a fairly mild shooter (considering) and thrifty enough using about 35 grains of pistol powder and a SRP. But so many other nice ones.

Good call. I did the same.

.300blk is great but without a suppressor, it loses a lot of it's magic to me. Still a cool round and great for shorter range deer hunts.
The .243 is nicely versatile and especially so in a platform like the Scout. Although, I might have to seek out a .450BM Scout to mess around with.
 
Nice minimalist rifles, picked up a 45-70 V2 last year but haven’t had the time to shoot it yet. I’m running a red dot on it until I decide if it needs a low power optic, I wish it came with irons or was d&t'd for them like the new one are. Anything in a pistol caliber or the bigger straight walled cartridges should have irons as far as I’m concerned.
 
How big was the 10 shot group?

I want one of these in 243, but they aren't making the new td's in that chambering and I can't find a gen 1 anywhere
 
Had a 243 compact SS, shot ok with what I put through it. Forgot about it in the safe, bunch of overlap, so sent it off to a new owner fairly recently.

35 whelen SS is a very, very good shooter with 225 partitions and 200 round nose. Rifle has accounted for two bears over bait in the past two years. Haven’t had a moose tag since owning it, but hopefully this year…

Checked the local stores and haven’t found a takedown case I like for it yet.

Its a huge shame that we can't have a can :( The Barnes 110gr and 120gr Tac Tx and hornady 110gr CX make the 300 BLK interesting to me. But even more so in 7.62x39

Owe it to yourself to try the 450 :)

You bet! Soon as I get a Barnes 275gr load figured out, its gonna be a freezer filler! Gotta score some dies and either H110 or Lil'Gun

Cool little guns; I find them far more ergonomic and also more graceful to the eye than the Encore or Contender, and the couple I've had and/or tried shoot every bit as well as the TC guns. The fact that you can buy a complete Scout for not much more than the cost of just a barrel for the TC's is pretty amazing.

The pistol-gripped ones shown above look interesting, but...a full pistol grip on a rifle that requires your thumb to #### the hammer really is not an ideal combination in practice if you typically grip the firearm with the thumb wrapped around the pistol grip. Back in the day I had a TC Contender with the aftermarket Choate stock with the full pistol grip; I mounted the thing on the gun, thought to myself "This looks great!", threw it up to my shoulder and shouldered it, liked the feel...went to #### the hammer and was suddenly "Uh oh..." :)

There’s a bunch of 3d printer files floating around for pistol grip stock adapters, I sent an email to the manufacturer in the States of the one I posted above. They don’t ship to Canada but he gave me the name of someone they deal with that does.

Wonder how 3D printed would handle 30 H

Ron?

I was just gonna look at the choate stock.
