M ROBSON Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 Me and my mate both run Federals through our CZ's. Good groupings from both guns. Mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 I get the best groups from my CZ centerfire with Federal Premium ammo, 1/4 inch groups at 100yds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveK Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 Best recommendation I can suggest is get into reloading them yourself. Once you work up a load that suits your rifle it should give you cloverleaf groups or better at 100 yards. You could always try Prvi Partizan. They seem to work pretty well through my Parker Hale and her indoors's remy 700. AND THEYRE CHEEEEP Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkield Posted March 1, 2006 Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 I started with Sako's as they came with the gun I bought, but after changing to Federals I have seen they are better, and I haven't realy given them a real good test yet. PPU stuff can be OK in some guns and absolute **** in others, so try a box and see how you get on you may be lucky, myb Tikka hates it but I have never tried it in the the CZ.

bobt Posted March 1, 2006 Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 My 243 CZ loved Federal, but things improved more with home loads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazooka Joe Posted March 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 Thanks for the reply's, I intend to try these Federals, but also have all the gear for the reloading. Just need a set of dies, & a few components. Used to reload for the handguns, before they were taken away, ( ******** ) Bazooka Joe :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemini Posted March 1, 2006 Report Share Posted March 1, 2006 Joe, I’m loading Nosler 100grn Spitzers at the moment, and even from a standing position using X sticks (rest my elbow against a tree) I can easily put them into an inch at 125yds. Would love to see what they can do from a bipod, but I can’t bloody well get down low enough to find out because it hurts my neck to use one. :blink: G.M.

Altough, our new firearms amendment act, which is due in this summer, might change all that , as gun crime over here has risen :blink: . Typical, get the law abiding shooter as usual.
