JRDS Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 Can't go wrong with a CZ mate but it's not the ideal Fox Calibre. Do a search there has been LOADS of discussion on this one but I have had 2 and never shot at a Fox with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazza Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 I have the CZ 16" varmint and bought a brookes trigger kit for it and now it's fine, but the HMR does have limits, especially in the wind. All the same a good rifle for not a lot of money I've not used mine on a fox as I have a centrefire for foxes, but some people on here are doing the business with them.

casts_by_fly Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 recballer, I have the savage stainless synthetic standard weight without the accu trigger. It is a nice little walking gun for <150 yd. Mine is topped with a 5-15 bushness 3200 elite and it shoots tacks (flies actually). For me, it will shoot any of the ammo that was available in the states, but it liked the 20 gr CCI gamepoints and the 17 gr Remingtons. For game shooting at 150 yd though, all would pass the 'its dead' test. If you get the savage, get the accu trigger model (all of the new ones from 2006 on). I love my gun, but I wish I would improve the trigger. That is the only holdup I see to it shooting <.5" groups all the time at 100 yd. Thanks, Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oly Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 IMHO out of those two the Savage would definately get my vote. But for the money (which you say isn't an issue) do yourself the favour of your shooting career and get....yes folks you've guessed it( )...an Anschutz!! :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chunk Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 cz bud. Top value for money. I`ve got two, one in hmr the other .22. A good looking gun doesnt make an acurate gun but i think savage rifles look like a high school metalwork project. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
