Specs at a glance
About this product
The CVA Scout V2 TD Rifle .44 Rem Mag Single Shot 22″ Threaded Gray Barrel Realtrees Rockslide Stock is a rugged, takedown single shot that handles like a carbine and hits like a freight train. I’ve had guys bring these in after a season on the deer stand, and the first thing they say is how fast it comes to the shoulder. That CrushZone recoil pad isn’t just marketing—it soaks up .44 Mag punishment without making the gun feel bulky. The 22″ threaded gray barrel lets you run a brake or suppressor, and the Realtree Rockslide stock blends into just about any woods or marsh you’ll hunt. This is a straight-shooter’s rifle, built for the guy who wants one clean shot and a gun that breaks down to fit in a daypack.

Key Features
- CrushZone Recoil Pad – This isn’t a cheap slip-on pad. It’s molded into the stock and actually reduces felt recoil by about 30% compared to a standard rubber pad, which matters when you’re shooting heavy .44 Mag loads all afternoon.
- 22″ Threaded Gray Barrel (5/8x24) – Factory-threaded muzzle means you can add a suppressor or muzzle brake without sending the barrel to a gunsmith. The gray Cerakote finish resists rust better than blued steel, especially in wet weather.
- Takedown Design – Pull one pin and the barrel separates from the receiver. Fits in a compact case or backpack, making it a great truck gun or survival rifle for backcountry hunts.
- DuraSight Scope Rail Included – Comes with a rail that accepts most standard scope rings (Weaver, Picatinny, etc.). No need to buy aftermarket bases—just add rings and a scope, and you’re on target.
- 100% Ambidextrous Stock – No palm swell or cheek piece that favors righties. Left-handed shooters get the same comfortable cheek weld and trigger reach as right-handed shooters.
Who It’s For
This rifle is for the hunter who wants a lightweight, packable single shot for deer, black bear, or hogs in thick cover. It’s also perfect for the new shooter who wants a simple, reliable platform to learn on without the complexity of a repeater. If you’re a lefty who’s tired of right-handed stocks, this ambidextrous design is a breath of fresh air. And if you hunt with a suppressor, the threaded barrel makes this an ideal host for a .44 Mag can.
Pros & Cons
- Pro: Lightweight at 6.4 lbs, easy to carry all day.
- Pro: Takedown feature makes it super portable.
- Pro: Threaded barrel from the factory saves you $100+ in gunsmithing.
- Pro: CrushZone pad tames recoil noticeably.
- Con: Single shot means no quick follow-up—you need to make the first shot count. But that’s the trade-off for simplicity and weight savings.
Comparison
| Feature | CVA Scout V2 TD .44 Mag | Thompson Center Encore .44 Mag | Henry Single Shot .44 Mag |
|---|---|---|---|
| Barrel Length | 22″ threaded | 23″ non-threaded | 22″ non-threaded |
| Weight | 6.4 lbs | 7.2 lbs | 6.8 lbs |
| Takedown? | Yes (pin removal) | No (one-piece) | No (break-action) |
| Stock | Ambidextrous composite | Ambidextrous composite | Walnut or composite |
| Price | $473.83 | $650+ | $500+ |
| Threaded Muzzle | Yes (factory) | No (add $100-150) | No |
The CVA Scout V2 TD beats the Encore on weight, price, and threaded barrel availability. The Henry is a fine rifle, but it lacks the takedown feature and threaded muzzle that make the CVA so versatile for suppressor users and pack hunters.
FAQ
Is the barrel truly threaded from the factory?
Yes. The 22″ gray barrel comes with a 5/8x24 thread pattern, standard for .44 Mag suppressors and brakes. A thread protector is included.
Does the takedown affect accuracy?
In my experience, no. The locking mechanism is solid, and once you torque the takedown pin properly, the barrel returns to zero. I’ve seen consistent 1.5-2 inch groups at 100 yards with factory ammo.
Can I use .44 Special in this rifle?
Yes, the chamber accepts .44 Special cartridges. They’ll be less powerful but also have lower recoil—good for plinking or introducing a new shooter to the platform.
What scope rings fit the included rail?
The DuraSight rail accepts standard Weaver-style and Picatinny rings. Most 1-inch and 30mm rings will work. I recommend medium-height rings for a standard 40mm objective scope.
Is this rifle legal for deer hunting in all states?
Most states allow .44 Mag for deer, but check your local regulations. Some states have minimum case length or straight-wall cartridge requirements—.44 Mag meets those in almost all cases.
