Description
The CVA Cascade Varmint Hunter Realtree Hillside .22-250 Rem 22″ Barrel 10-Rounds is a purpose-built, high-capacity bolt-action rifle engineered for long-range varmint and predator control.

Key Features
- Flat-Out Varmint Cartridge: Chambered in the legendary .22-250 Remington, known for its blistering velocity and laser-like trajectory for hitting small, distant targets.
- High-Capacity Ready: Comes standard with a 10-round detachable box magazine—no need for constant reloading when the action heats up.
- Suppressor-Ready Barrel: The 22-inch barrel is threaded 5/8″-24, allowing you to mount a muzzle brake or suppressor directly with no gunsmithing required.
- Integrated Realtree Hillside Camo: Full-coverage camouflage on the stock and metalwork breaks up your outline in mixed terrain, from Missouri fence lines to rolling hills.
- User-Adjustable Trigger: The single-stage trigger is adjustable from 2.5 to 4 pounds, letting you tune the break for your preferred precision.

At its core, the Cascade action is a robust, three-lug design with a 60-degree bolt throw for fast cycling. The stock is a lightweight, injection-molded design with an ergonomic grip and a raised comb for a solid cheek weld behind optics. The rifle comes ready for your choice of scope bases, compatible with common Remington 700 short-action patterns, allowing you to mount optics from brands like Vortex, Leupold, or Burris. The price point of $719.10 positions it as a serious tool, not a toy. Here’s the thing—when you’re watching a coyote hang up at 300 yards, you need a rifle that won’t hesitate.
Who This Rifle Is For
This rifle is for the dedicated varminter, the predator hunter, and the shooter who demands a practical tool for extended sessions. It’s for the farmer needing to manage crop threats or the hunter stationed on a windy ridgetop calling foxes. If your scenario involves spotting, leading, and making repeat shots on small, wary targets across open country, this configuration is built for that job. It ships to Missouri and compliant US states, ready for those long, demanding days in the field.
Pros & Cons
Pros: The .22-250 chambering is arguably the king of varmint cartridges, offering minimal drop and wind drift. The 10-round magazine is a significant tactical advantage over traditional 3- or 4-round capacities. The threaded barrel and adjustable trigger add immediate value and customization right out of the box. The full camo finish is durable and functional.
Cons: The .22-250 Remington has significant barrel wear and report; it’s a high-performance round that consumes barrels faster than a .223 and benefits from hearing protection or a suppressor. The rifle’s weight, around 7.5 pounds before optics, is manageable but not ultralight for long stalks.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the barrel twist rate, and what bullet weights does it stabilize?
A: The Cascade Varmint Hunter in .22-250 Remington features a 1:9″ twist rate. This effectively stabilizes a wide range of varmint bullets, from lighter 40-50 grain projectiles up to heavier 60-70 grain options designed for wind-bucking and coyotes.
Q: Does the magazine interfere with shooting from a bipod or bags?
A: The detachable box magazine is designed to sit flush, presenting a minimal profile. It allows for stable shooting from a bipod like those from Harris or Caldwell, or from front bags, without significant interference or wobble.
Q: Is the action bedded for accuracy?
A: Yes, the action is fully free-floated and features an aluminum bedding block embedded in the stock. This system secures the action rigidly and consistently, promoting the repeatable accuracy needed for long-range varminting.
