kyska Posted October 5, 2010 Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 I've just bought another hmr after selling it and realised I needed it. Why would two guns from the same manufacturer handle so differently? IE My last one would give shotgun spread with hornady but bang on with rem's, the one I have took a few shots to zero and now they clover leaf at 100 yards with hornady. I ask as they were both CZ, is this a flaw in manufacture? surely engineering tolerance should produce some consistency?? I understand some guns shoot slightly better but this effect is profound! Jaw dropping profound. There is the other end of the spectrum where some guns are tuned on such tight tolerances to just be good with one type of load/bullet etc. Sounds pedanctic but its putting me off CZ.

al4x Posted October 5, 2010 Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 could be a heap of things, scope / mounts, moderator, trigger barrel touching the stock etc etc plus you never know with a second hand gun if its been fettled at all. The guns are basic but functional and most shoot well even if you do have to do a little to get them to do so. Now you've got this one stop thinking and keep it and use it!!!

Shropshire_Lad Posted October 5, 2010 Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 Hi, cz's in HMR can be choosy about which brand they shoot, the fact that the bullets are supposed to come from the same place makes no diffeence. Mine shoots Remington better than any of the others. Don't be put off cz's, you have by your own words got a rifle that will clover leaf at 100yds with factory ammo, pretty cool don't you think? a lot of c/fire guy's can't get that with factory ammo. atvb Paul.

Beardo Posted October 5, 2010 Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 i don't think it's an exclusive CZ thing - pretty much every rifle shoots differently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyska Posted October 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 i don't think it's an exclusive CZ thing - pretty much every rifle shoots differently. Thats my point, I'm not knocking CZ in particular but why such massive differences that shouldn't be there with reasonable engineering? Do hand loaders get such anomalies, air rifles have big difference in accuracy between pellets, and if I could be *****, my rapid has a preference from jsb to AA, but the final difference wouldn't be over the all inspiring P>0.05 at max, but rimfires are by the looks of it. I'm just pondering really.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
