The new SCOUT V2 is very similar in design to the APEX centerfire rifle but without the interchangeable barrel capability. So, for the hunter who wants a high-quality single shot rifle in only one caliber, the SCOUT V2 is the ideal choice. Sleek, lightweight, and easy to operate, the SCOUT V2 sets a new standard for affordable single-shot hunting rifles. The SCOUT V2 sports a 22" fluted barrel that is constructed of 416 grade stainless steel. 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 is also available in a "Compact" version (1" shorter stock and 2" shorter barrel) - which makes it perfect as a deer rifle for the smaller stature hunter, or for anyone as an easy to maneuver "truck gun" or "brush gun." Caliber offerings in the Compact model include .243, 7mm-08, and .35 Remington, while the standard length SCOUT V2s are chambered in .35 Whelen, .35 Remington, .44 Magnum, and .300 Blackout (with a suppressor ready 16.5 inch threaded barrel). All SCOUT V2 rifles feature a genuine DuraSight DEAD-ON one-piece scope mount as standard equipment.
