My new Cva cascade

I know there has been a thread or two in the past on this rifle but not much lately so I’ll start another. I have been looking for another 243 bolt gun lately and as you know that’s a tough order to fill, my requirements were threaded, a good trigger, a decent stock that didn’t feel like a piece of Tupperware, and something that would shoot decent, pretty much the only thing I could find available was the tc venture II. I read about the new cascade, barrel made by Bergara, a good adjustable trigger, cerakote fde with a nice soft touch camo stock, I was sold, of course no one had one. Well I finally happened to find one. Out of the box I fell in love with the looks, feel, balance, weight, trigger, pretty much everything about it. I have owned pretty much every sub 600 dollar rifle on the market and the cascade blows them all away in that price range. So I took some 100 grain cheap hearters ammo for sight in and barrel break in, 1.25” at 100, not too shabby for that ammo, next came the 65 vmax/varget test loads, 1/2” out of the gate, worst charge weight of the test was 1”. Then out came the factory 58 vmax ammo, 3/4”, without really trying, well I’m sold on this rifle guys
 
I’m glad you’re digging your new rig! I’ve been eyeing one of those for quite awhile, I’d love to have one for a truck gun! Something I can carry around with me on my farms and not have to bring my higher dollar rifles all the time. Let us know if you continue to like it! Seems like you’re happy with your purchase and that’s all that matters!
 
Sounds like you got a keeper.
If you don't mind me asking what charge of Varget are you using
with the 87 V-Max?

I’m actually using the 65 vmax with varget, between 40.5-40.8 is where I’m looking at
