CVA Cascade XT .223 Rem 22-inch Threaded Rifle Realtree
$913.92
The CVA Cascade XT .223 Rem 22-inch threaded rifle in Realtree Hillside delivers sub-MOA accuracy with a radial brake and adjustable LOP for precision hunters and shooters.
The cva cascade xt .223 rem 22-inch threaded rifle realtree is a factory-tuned bolt gun that splits the difference between a hard-use hunting rig and a precision trainer. Chambered for .223 Rem (with 5.56 NATO compatibility per CVA specs), it uses a heavier #5 taper fluted barrel with a radial muzzle brake to keep recoil flat and your windage adjustments on target. The 22-inch threaded barrel uses a 5/8×24 pattern, letting you mount a suppressor or brake where legal. This is a rifle built for shooters who demand sub-MOA repeatability without a custom build wait time.

Key features
- Heavier #5 taper fluted barrel — WHY IT MATTERS: Adds stiffness for consistent sub-MOA groups while the fluting sheds weight, keeping the rifle nimble for spot-and-stalk work.
- Radial muzzle brake — WHY IT MATTERS: Reduces felt recoil by ~40% (per CVA testing), letting you spot your own impacts without breaking cheek weld.
- 22-inch threaded barrel (5/8×24) — WHY IT MATTERS: Standard thread pitch accepts most .223/5.56 suppressors and brakes, giving you muzzle-device flexibility for range or field use.
- Adjustable length of pull — WHY IT MATTERS: Tailors LOP from 12.5 to 14.5 inches via included spacers, so shooters with shorter or longer arms get proper eye relief and natural position.
- Soft-Touch Realtree Hillside stock — WHY IT MATTERS: The textured finish improves grip in wet conditions and breaks up your outline without adding weight or snag points.
Who it’s for
This rifle is for the precision-minded hunter who wants a single platform for varmint control, steel plate matches, and suppressed plinking. It also fits the budget-conscious shooter who expects factory-sub-MOA accuracy without paying custom-gun prices. If you run a .223 suppressor and need a threaded barrel with a proper brake, the Cascade XT delivers without compromise.
Pros/Cons
- Pros: Sub-MOA guarantee out of the box, radial brake works well for follow-ups, adjustable LOP fits multiple shooters, 5/56 NATO compatibility adds ammo flexibility.
- Cons: Stock comb is not adjustable for cheek height — you may need a cheek riser or bag rider for perfect scope alignment with higher rings.
