Thompson Center Scout TD .450 Bushmaster 25" 1 Stainless Rifle

The Scout TD 450 Bushmaster 25'' Bbl Single Shot Black/Stainless is a purpose-built single-shot rifle engineered for hunters and precision shooters who demand raw stopping power and reliability in the field. CVA's Scout platform has earned respect among experienced hunters for its straightforward mechanical design, minimal points of failure, and ability to deliver consistent accuracy at extended range. This configuration chambered in 450 Bushmaster—a cartridge purpose-designed for modern straight-wall hunting in states requiring larger caliber rifles—makes it an ideal choice for deer, hog, and medium-game hunting where penetration and energy retention matter.

The 25-inch barrel maximizes velocity and energy from the 450 Bushmaster cartridge while maintaining a balanced weight of 9.18 lbs—light enough for all-day field carry without fatigue. The combination of black synthetic furniture and stainless steel barrel delivers corrosion resistance and low maintenance in harsh weather conditions, critical attributes for hunters operating in wet or coastal environments. The single-shot action eliminates mechanical complexity found in semi-auto systems, reducing cleaning time and eliminating magazine-related malfunctions—a proven advantage in tactical and hunting applications where simplicity translates to reliability under stress.

Law enforcement and military personnel transitioning to civilian hunting, as well as experienced rifle shooters building a dedicated straight-wall hunting rifle, will appreciate the Scout TD's modular ergonomics and aftermarket accessory compatibility. The stainless/black finish resists rust in field conditions where firearms may be exposed to moisture for extended periods. This rifle pairs effectively with modern hunting optics and integrates seamlessly into existing tactical gear loadouts, making it a versatile addition for those seeking a compact, single-shot platform in the 450 Bushmaster cartridge for hunting or range applications.
