What do you think to this choice of 22lr/.17hmr

[mrmints]

I was intially thinking of getting two CZ's but now I'm thinking I'd quite like to get some different guns. I fancy the t-bolt in 22lr and a cz in .17hmr.

 

What are peoples thoughts of the Browning T-bolt in 22lr?

 

This is all assuming I get my ticket obviously!

i have both 22lr and hmr 455 in cz,they are both tack drivers

I have a cz hmr which is great.

If I was getting both hmr and 22lr I would have a look at the sako quad.

My uncle has one with both barrel's shortened it's quality.

I have a cz 455 hmr and love it but looking in the future for an lr and won't be a cz . I thought a t bolt maybe

[mrmints]

The t-bolts look and feel very nice. There is also no premium to pay for a short barrel. The only problem is the trigger apparetly, which I've read is very heavy.

The T Bolt feels very short and tiny, might not suit some people. Pick one up and have a wiggle.I have a mate he uses one in .22LR and he really rates it.

I have both the CZ455 in .17 and the T-Bolt in 22 LR. I love the HMR but I cant get on with the T-Bolt. I bought the plastic stock version and it feels like you have a toy in your hand. I think that possibly the wood stock might be better but I am not sure as I have not handled one. The rifle is very accurate and once the bolt has been used it smooth's itself out a bit but the trigger is total pants, no matter how much you adjust the little adjustment screw. If there was a fix for the trigger then I will get it done as soon as and I will also be getting some sort of new stock for it. In the case that I am still not happy with it, then I would be looking at changing it to possibly an other 455.

Can you get the CZ455 or 453 (the ones with the "push forward for ultra light trigger") in 16"? I had a little look around and could only see them in 20" or above.

I've got a 455 with a 16" barrel.

 

I've also shot a synthetic stock T bolt a lot, yeah it feels small and light but after a while you get used to it and starts to be a benefit, you can carry it all day as if its not there and handle it very quickly. The straight pull action is nice, as are the 10 shot mags (you get 2 with the synthetic stock version, one sits in the end of the stock).

 

General built quality is good but as said the trigger is pretty heavy making it easy to pull a shot.

 

Fix the trigger and you'll have a super gun.

I have a T Bolt Hmr that wears my N750 - it's proved an excellent combination !! Yes the trigger is heavy but I can't say that whilst walking fields through the winter shooting off sticks I missed any more than I would have done had I mounted my N750 onto my

CZ452 Hmr ! It's also very light to carry - I intend to buy & fit one of the new Photons to the T Bolt for this coming winter & my N750 will go onto my .204, sorry went a bit of subject there !!
