THE CASCADE CONCEPT In designing the CVA Cascade, our goal was simply to build the best bolt-action hunting rifle in what we’d consider the “affordable class” – meaning: starting at around $500. We also wanted to equip the gun with as many great features as possible, features that hunters and shooters would appreciate, but perhaps not expect in a gun in its price range. Accomplishing all of this required taking a hard look at how modern-day hunters utilize their rifles.
2. Always keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction, even when the gun is believed to be unloaded. 3. Keep fingers away from the trigger, and the safety in the “safe” position, until ready to fire the gun. 4. Be sure of the target and what is beyond it before aiming or firing. 5. Never trust the mechanical safety of any firearm. Mechanical devices can and do fail. 6. All firearms should remain unloaded until ready to be fired.
4. Check the trigger and safety for proper function. Dry fire the rifle several times, checking the function of the firing pin and safety each time. 5. Be certain that your ammunition caliber matches the inscription on the barrel. 6. After familiarizing yourself with the rifle, you may load and fire the rifle in a safe place. 7. If you have any questions or concerns, contact CVA Customer Service before proceeding. 4. FEATURES OF THE CASCADE™ A. Crushzone® Recoil Pad B. Cocking Indicator C. Safety D.
sit as close to the barrel as possible, while still allowing for a proper field of view when looking through the scope. There are many manufacturers of scope bases and rings. Each manufacturer has its own specifications for installing the parts. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions when installing, including the recommended torque settings for the screws (if provided). 6. ADJUSTING THE TRIGGER WEIGHT-OF-PULL OF THE CASCADE™ The Cascade™ trigger is adjustable for the weight-of-pull.
9. TIPS FOR OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE WITH THE CASCADE™ • Read and understand this owner’s manual. If you have questions, contact CVA Customer Service and resolve them. Use only fresh, factory loaded ammunition from reliable makers. Choose aftermarket accessories such as scopes, scope mounts and rings carefully. Remember – a chain is only as strong as its weakest link! Follow all instructions regarding proper barrel break-in, cleaning and torque settings as closely as possible. • • • 10.
5. Load cartridges into the magazine by pressing them straight down between the feed lips. 6. Insert the magazine into the rifle until the latch clicks and the magazine is secure. 7. Push the bolt forward, stripping the top cartridge from the magazine and into the chamber. At the forward end of the stroke, rotate the bolt handle down into the locked position. 8. Rotate the safety to the forward position and press the trigger gently to fire. 12.
• Insert a strong pin, small Allen wrench or punch (a paper clip will not work here!) into the area shown • Unscrew the firing pin assembly by turning the bolt shroud counterclockwise and remove the firing pin assembly from the bolt. Further disassembly is not recommended. • • Lubricate the bolt shroud threads and assemble in reverse order. The firing pin should sit at the top of the bolt cam notch as shown when complete. 11.
