deadeye ive Posted May 23, 2006 Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 After much deliberation I went for this ............I just could'nt justify the further £235 for the Anshulzt 1517 where the total price of this rifle and sound moderator was £300 Just got to try it out to check the basics are in order before I go to town on it .The trigger when adjusted won't go below 14 N so it looks like a Brooks kit or a bit of needle filing Some more material will come off to give a cleaning rag clearence between barrel and stock as well I feel Any body know where I can get some Hornady Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Posted May 23, 2006 Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 Thats a cracker of a rifle you got their Ive. Try out the accuracy first Ive, before you go fidling, they are usually accurate out of the box. But, then its totally up to you mate. The very best of luck with it, hope you have many hours of fun together. Frank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine had it all done when I got it and I've been very pleased even though its previous owner hated it by the sounds of things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devilishdave Posted May 23, 2006 Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 That looks identical to my varmint. I put the brooks kit on mine and created a good floating clearance and it shoots verry well. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dunganick Posted May 23, 2006 Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 the varmint is built on an american action and as such has american written on it (in some cases) the way to tell is from the barrel profile, also the blueing quality on the barrel, and i think i am correct in saying the varmint has the bead blasted style finish on the action where as the american has a blued action. So the above rifle is a varmint. Yes most CZ's come threaded from the factory, i believe that some of the .22mag rifles do not come threaded. an american, also shows slightly different chequering, with that little trangle furthest forward of the chequering which the varmint does not have if my memory serves me. The varmint also has a Varmint forend with no chequering, where as the american has a lower profile forend with a triangle of chequering. a varmint, showing the matt finish action, a duller blueing on the barrel, and a much more heavy and tapered profile on the barrel. Also no extra bit on the chequering. Thats a lovely looking rifle BTW, one of the nicest in this country i have ever seen. You did well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougy Posted May 23, 2006 Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 Must say Ive it looks a good job well smart i can see now why you didnt whant to go shooting the other day. Yes you have made a nice job of grouting between your slabs OH AND NEARLY FORGOT yes it is a really nice pattern on the stock. Will have to have a day out see what its like on paper, Will give you advance warning if it shoots better than mine Ill pee in your boots. And tell everyone what you said about CZs looks very nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peck Posted May 23, 2006 Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 deadeye-ive, that rifle looks very much like the Varmint, its the heavy barrel version of the American. It probably says American on the receiver, Very confusing. For ammo try Trent Firearms, Bucknall, SOT. I buy my ammo nfrom there but i always use the Rimington, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadeye ive Posted May 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 Thanks for the replies lads .........Nick I have the tag off the Rifle and it says American but looking at your post I have the varmint ...........Who cares any way It has a sak mod on it The scope is a Simmons Pro air 4 x 12 x 40 Scope mounts are Millets Was hoping to go out tommorrow but work commitments have put paid to that Dougy ...........If it's poo I have around £400 to spend to get it as good as your Ruger making both rifles the same price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
