Single shot Grendel pistol - hill37 - 11-30-2020

I heard CVA makes a Scout 6.5 Grendel pistol but I have Found one yet. BINGO!https://ammoandarmsstore.com/cva-connecticut-valley-arms/

I think that should work. Myself owning a TC Encore I would just pick up another barrel but if that isn't the case CVA has turned out some pretty dang good firearms

CVA 1st brought out a 6.5 Creedmore (google the Classic Firearms youtube video) a bit of a kick on that one...
that's for the heads-up on the CVA Grendel... see gunbroker.com link below:

That said ... if you're a good shopper.. for "not-that-much-more" if you can scrounge one up you can get a "decent" bolt gun

Suggested an 18" Youth rifle. Haven't heard anything yet.

I have a Decked Mini, nice AR pistol and now have a CVA Grendel pistol on the way. Found one at a for $330 shipped and have a CVA Pistol case coming also. Should be pretty cool. Found and purchased before I'd seen anyone even mention them. Also saw a smokin deal on a 6.5Creedmoor version also. Still debating on that. These pistols are quite a bargain and takes are told of a nice trigger in them. I'll see next week hopefully.

I think I want one, pin and weld job and a nice stock and it would make a super nice compact packing rifle.

A5 Your right that would make a nice pack rifle - put a pistol scope on it an order a CVA rifle butt stock an swap it out
You would have a compact cooper scout Rifle

I was thinking more like a nice 2moa red dot

I wonder if you could make this fit?

Thanks for the heads up. I just bought one of those. The loads for my 16" Howa Mini should also work great in the CVA pistol.

Took a couple of weeks (the seller said it would) but my CVA Scout V2 arrived. I'm impressed. This is a hefty pistol (5lbs 6oz) and the lock-up feels solid. Trigger is very nice right out of the box. I removed the base, de-greased the screws and reinstalled with loctite then mounted a Vortex Venom I had on hand. I'll eventually install a traditional pistol scope, but I want to sight it in and hunt with it this weekend. Honestly I think these pistols are a steal.

So.....how does it shoot? ~Riuma


Single shot Grendel pistol - weagle - 01-13-2021

It shoots great. I only got to put a few rounds through it and my chrono wasn't working so I don't have any velocity / accuracy report yet. It is really sweet shooting as far as the trigger and modest recoil.


Single shot Grendel pistol - riuma - 01-13-2021

Thanks. I would like to see a serious accuracy evaluation at some point. Everyone reviews the 6.5 CM and then shoot steel plates with it. I'm standing on the brink waiting to see a Grendel evaluation that includes accuracy tests. What a slick deer gun that would make.~Riuma

I have a traditional 3X pistol scope on the way, so I'll be able to get a better accuracy read than with the red-dot.


Single shot Grendel pistol - riuma - 01-14-2021

Very cool. Thanks.~Riuma


Single shot Grendel pistol - weagle - 01-28-2021

30mm 3X Tasco World Class mounted. Ready for some accuracy / velocity testing:

Keep the information coming, weagle. What a great trunk gun; portable and powerful.


Single shot Grendel pistol - weagle - 01-31-2021

I got my MagnetoSpeed working. Sensor was too far away from the bore due to the barrel thickness. Once I swapped to the small spacer it worked great.

Factory Hornady 123 SST average velocity 2370 fps (10 shots)
Handloaded 123 SST max load IMR 8208 XBR 2430 fps (5 shots)

All my shooting was rather hasty because I was short on time and wanted to get some velocity readings. Even with the MagnetoSpeed attached and taking not so careful aim both loads were grouping around 2" at 100 yds. The handload group was about 3" up and right from the factory group.

I think with a good rest either load will be very accurate. Next time I won't fool with the chrony and just see what sort of groups I can shoot.

Just based on my results so far I have no doubt this will be a fine hunting pistol.
