Rimfire Gallery--Show Us Your Gun

Those groups almost got me to buy a Bell/Carlson Oddyssey stock for my 10/22.. The $500 for the stock gave me pause, though.
 
Picked this up today.! Looking forward to see what it can do.!!

My CZ457

2A.email Reviews - My CZ 457 - IMPRESSIVE!! At the Range on Oct 15, 2021​


CZ 457 PROVARMINT
SUPPRESSOR-READY
16.5 in Barrel Length
Leupold 35x45
Harris Bipod
Eley Tenex


The trigger pull is noticeable less that the Lithgow 101 (see previous blog posts for details).

The both action is very smooth and locks smoothly too. Ammunition inserts into the chamber without issue and brass ejection was excellent. All better than the Lithgow which occasionally would not load the round into chamber; the lead bullet would 'buggered up" and had to decarded. "Buggered up" is a legitimate scientific and engineering term. LOL!

I like the lever on the left side of the action allowing easy bolt removal.

I cleaned the barrel well before shooting and after 'zeroing' the scope, the first group was OUTSTANDING!

I noticed the group starting to spread about 25 rounds, cleaned and groups tighten back up.

Repeated again after the next 25 rounds.

According to the Manufacture's Manual, the trigger pull is set in the range of 11.1–14 N (2.5 - 3 lbs.) I measure at 2.25 to 3 lbs which I suspect will be less as it breaks in The trigger pull weight and is ADJUSTABLE. HOW COOL!!! I'm looking forward to experimenting!!

Winchester Model 47. I bought it at a gun show a few years back. The bluing is rough but I wanted a single shot Winchester in my collection and I'd never seen a Model 47 before. So I bought it for too much money, as is my habit.

Wouldn't go boom when I got it to the range.

Turns out it was a victim of a wanton Dremel attack. Someone had butchered the sear/firing pin.

Fortunately I was able to get a new one from some old time gun shop located back in the hills of Missouri.

Along with that, I had purchased a trigger, bolt shroud and firing pin springs in an attempt to fix it. I had now successfully managed to nearly double my investment. It goes bang now though.

It was kinda nice to bring the old girl back to life.
