This CVA Scout TD V3 .45-70 Government (CVA part no. CR4442S) is a right-hand takedown rifle chambered for one of America’s most proven big-bore cartridges. Connecticut Valley Arms built it in stainless steel with a black synthetic stock, giving hunters a rust-resistant option for wet, muddy conditions. The TD takedown feature separates the barrel from the action for compact storage between hunting seasons, and the .45-70 Govt chambering has taken large game reliably for well over a century.
