Gray Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 i konw the general consensus for a CZ452 is either Eley or Winchester but unless i travel for miles i have difficulty getting either - however a place in Bodmin sell RWS, before i waste money has any 452 owners out there used this brand if so whats your verdict/findings?? ps did a search - nowt on the rws appeared.

Poacher Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 Country sports in Launceston do Winchester and Eley if you'd like to give them a try... No experience with RWS sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_k Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 i whack remington subs through mine! they do the job for me, and plus they were free Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevethevanman Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 Winchester subs all the time , I use body shots to the chest or if they are broadside on I put the cross-hairs on there shoulders, this works for me and my hunting is done at 60yds, I will most of the time never find the bullet Here is the damage to a 5LB block of sculpting clay at 25yds , the red arrow points to the entrance hole, the black arrow points to the exit hole, looks pretty impresive for a Sub-Sonic 22LR hollow point bullet.

plinker Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 have you tried martin elworthy guns in st austell? you can also get eley and win in helston plinker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunter Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 Why does it need to be either of those brands? Every barrel is different, and will shoot better or worse with different brands of ammunition. Just because X ammo works in Mr. Y's gun, does not mean it will be the same in yours. RWS works well, as does Lapua in my .22, however Winchester currently fails to produce a decent group for hunting standard. You could also try Remington Subs, CCI, Lapua subsonic, and see how these group with your rifle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter_HMR Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 just buy a box each of whatever you have and shoot to see which groups the best and stick it its for hunting anyway rabbits arent that small a target Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr_nick Posted February 9, 2007 Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 Mine likes Blazer, 1-2 inch groups at 100yrds or better. They are not sub sonic and not hollow point so not for hunting but at £17.50 per brick you cannot beat them or target shooting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
