Mungler Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 StuartP, shot his yesterday and it's spot on. What turned me onto CZ's was the HMR I have - cheap, cheerful but accurate and ticks all the boxes. I am going to get a CZ in .243. Also, if the Howa I bought has since been lost (a long story) then I will like you be getting a CZ in .223. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mungler Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 (edited) Mark, be a love and cut and paste that - I have been banned by the BBS by suggesting that an over priced Sako up for sale was erm over priced. Quicker than you could say "the seller's a bum chum of one of the mods" and yours truly got a ban for interfering with a sale; no right of reply, just bannage. Indeed, I defy anyone to spend a week on the BBS and post and survive. Ah well, if they want to ban people with cleared funds and who deal straight from their sales sections then so be it - they are too busy keeping the door open for rip off merchants from what I can gather Edited June 26, 2009 by Mungler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mungler Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 Errrr I believe the word you gents are looking for is "battered". Or rather, that guns been ******* well battered, as we would say in Essex. Swervetastic. What else is out there? Mark, can you find me something in .243 local - that Sako was from a guy in Maldon (just down the road from me) and I would have paid him what it was worth - is that still on there?

Dunkield Posted June 27, 2009 Report Share Posted June 27, 2009 So who's has one and what are they like?Cheers chaps LB I have one, it has changed a bit since I bought it but it has always shot well. I don't like the hogsback stocks some of them come with, mine is/was a Lux and the wooden stock was horrible, waaay to thin in the forend, I even pulled the QD stud out just putting a bipod on it Having got rid of the stock and had it chopped by 3" I realy like it, shoots hand loads well, shoot factory stuff well, and it was as cheap as chips The bolt is a bit agricultural compared to say a Tikka, but other than that, as tool for doing a job I can't fault it.

dusk2dawn Posted June 28, 2009 Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 (edited) So who's has one and what are they like? Cheers chaps LB Hi LB you are more than welcome to pop over anytime and have a few rounds with mine, cannot fault it since I had the bolt reworked, excellent value for money workhorse especially with S&B on top. If your flexible we could have an evening at Charlie, from time to time I have a ******** to shoot over from the sunroof of the Def. Come over and have a catch up Rgds D2D.
