CVA CR4442 Scout 45-70 Gov 1rd 22" Blued Threaded Barrel, Blued Picatinny Rail Receiver, Stealth Gray Fixed Synthetic Stock
The CVA Scout 45-70 Gov is a no-frills, hard-working single-shot rifle built for hunters who want straightforward power without the complexity or premium price tag. Based on CVA's proven single-shot platform, the Scout delivers the authority of the venerable .45-70 Government cartridge in a compact, adaptable package. This isn't a rifle overloaded with features you'll never use—it's a reliable workhorse designed around what matters: getting on target and making the shot. Whether you're hunting big game, reaching out at the range, or stocking a truck gun, the Scout's modern ergonomics and suppressor-ready threaded barrel make it a practical choice for serious hunters on a realistic budget.
The 22-inch blued barrel is threaded (11/16x24) and ready for a suppressor or muzzle device right out of the box. The blued Picatinny rail receiver makes optics mounting straightforward—slap on your favorite scope without hunting for adapters or dealing with proprietary systems. The fixed Stealth Gray synthetic stock is built for function over fashion, with solid ergonomics that keep you comfortable during long hunts without the maintenance demands of wood. At 7.8 lbs, the Scout balances enough heft to manage the .45-70's recoil while staying packable for backcountry or vehicle use.
Single-shot rifles have proven their worth in the field for generations, and there's honest appeal in a rifle that forces you to make your first shot count. The Scout respects that tradition while ditching the weight and complication of modern semi-autos. If you want a capable, straightforward .45-70 that lets you spend your budget on ammunition and glass instead of unnecessary features, the CVA Scout is worth a hard look.
