Absolutely not! That model has been discontinued for a year or two. At it's highest popularity, it never sold for more than $169.
The only bolt-action in CVA's present lineup is the $140 Buckhorn.

Paying that much for a discontinued CVA is not what I call a good deal. Besides, some shooters had problems getting good loads in their Hunterbolts. For that kind of money there are much better deals on the market which will give you a better rifle and for a better price. Unless you have your heart set on owning a CVA.
There is an Omega Z5 for $299.00 a much better rifle for less money. There are NEF Sidekicks for aroubd $159.00 again, a better rifle. Who ever has that rifle deal is dumping stock it sounds like. If I am going to buy a discontinued model rifle, it better be a real good deal.
Look around at all the differnent companies out there and the on line stores. Good deals are out there.

RE: is Cva a good choice
The suggestion for the Pursuit LT is OK but if you decide on that make sure you can check the trigger pull first. I got one of the first ones that they made and the trigger pull was impossible to use. So heavy that it hurt my finger to pull more than once. They apparently have fixed it now but make sure you are not getting an early one. I would look at the Z5 Omega if you want to spend about $300. I have an Omega and it is great although somewhat particular on bullet/sabot selection to allow easy (or should I say somewhat easy) loading.

WOW!! that's a good price for an Omega even if it is the Z5. I am not really sure what is so different from the Z5 and the regular Omega. It would be interesting to know why one is so much cheaper. I heard that they have a cheaper sight... maybe the stock is different also.
