Looks like they’re coming out with single shot rifles that would make excellent suppressor hosts. I’m interested in the 8.6 BO  |

CVA makes the Scout rifle & pistol version of this layout. It's stainless as well as some limited FDE painted version with camo stocks (that come and go in availability). They offer in every caliber except 8.6 Blackout, which CVA needs to get to be competitive. Rossi is hit and miss on their guns. I had a Rossi 62 .22lr that wasn't any good, but heard other rave about it. They made a new version of the .22lr pump gun and have heard it is problematic. The CVA doesn't have the same reputation. The CVA Scout is over built as it's 1 platform for everything from .357 mag to 6.5 Creedmore. So it's a large frame gun and heavier than it needs to be, but build quality doesn't seem to be an issue. I'm glad to see the market being filled by other players. The AAC/Handi rifle in .300 blackout was an interesting suppressor host the went away while being popular. Or maybe got popular once we couldn't get them anymore. |

I got the hog hunter so it was ready to go out of the box and the CVA still needed a scope. If you don't need a threaded barrel a scoped bolt action can be had for less. According to this Thread the MSRP is going to be mid $300. I think that's going to make the Rossi really attractive. Back when H&R/NEF was still making guns I was looking for an NEF .22lr. Every shop I went into had Rossi multi barrel kits in stock but no NEF. The Rossi with rimfire and shotgun barrel were less than the NEF in one chamber. I eventually ended with a .17 HMR. Not my best decision. |

Quoted: Fair enough. I was thinking of the ammo restrictions in lower Michigan during deer season. 350 Legend is like a .357 with a bit more juice behind it. I am not familiar with 350 legend, can you shoot 38 and 357 in it? I was thinking if I ever get a suppressor it would make a super quiet host, especially with 38 special. |

I was thinking if I ever get a suppressor it would make a super quiet host, especially with 38 special. 350 Legend's parent case is a .223 necked up to 9mm (.355.) It's a straight walled cartridge. Bullet weights range from 125 to 280 gr 350 has a larger case capacity than .357 Maximum, and is capable of higher velocities and greater stopping power. It can be used in an AR-15 action, and uses a .223/ 5.56 bolt |

Rossi's also making a .410/.45lc Tuffy Survivor based on the same action but with a pistol grip stock. This and the LWC in .300bo kinda have my attention. Used to have a Handi Rifle I picked up used back when they were as cheap (relatively) as these Rossis. I like break action single shots and Rossi has em in several calibers I like. I have the Rossi Gallery gun I bough new a few years ago, ordered online for right at $200 including tax & transfer. For that kind of money I've been happy with it. Not the greatest trigger but no malfunctions, not ammo picky and above average accuracy. Been tempted to grab their bolt action .22wmr but these single shots look like more bang for the buck. |
