    The new Springfield 2020 Waypoint Rifle

    I posted this on one of the other threads on the Waypoint. I love mine. This required no effort--groups were a tad bigger, (.5") with the heavier factory loads. Not even close to fully broken in. I bought it specifically for the shorter barrel for field use/coyote calling/hunting, so the 20"...

    springfield Armory waypoint 2020

    I love mine. This required no effort--groups were a tad bigger, (.5") with the heavier factory loads. Not even close to fully broken in. I bought it specifically for the shorter barrel for field use/coyote calling/hunting, so the 20" barrel was perfect with the Omega 36M can on the end.

    Does cleaning your barrel throw off the first shot?

    Ever notice how your car drives better after an oil change? :rolleyes: Pure psychological distortion/misperception.

    Anschutz 64

    Rifles built on the 64 actions are good, 54's are better. If you have the money get a rifle based on a 54 action. For "informal" work a 64 may be just fine for your needs. Right now I'm down the rabbit hole on an older 64--trying to upgrade the trigger to the newer 5098 trigger. Anschutz...

    CZ 457

    My first question is, how good does it shoot now? No on muzzle break. Thread if you're running a suppressor, but I don't think a "break/brake" will do much for a Varmint weight gun, but I'll defer to others with more experience. Match Chambers are a rabbit hole...lots of info out there...

    CZ 457

    Good luck on the NRL match! I've been shooting ARA Rimfire Factory Class targets with the CZ452. It will consistently shoot 2000 + and occasionally even better (best has been 2325). It shoots almost as well as my 457 Varmint MTR.

    CZ 457

    Yes, trimmed to 16" by the previous owner. Timney trigger. All the work done by the previous owner. Bought it from a gent over on rimfirecentral. A real find! You always wonder when someone else has cut and threaded a barrel. In this case it was obviously well done. On another note, that group...

    What’s up with all the “fuel filters” on Facebook?

    ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid) Solvent Entrapment device. Become a Federal Felon at your own risk. Sure do it as an act of civil disobedience if you like and are willing to pay the price. Most people are just penny wise and pound foolish--Don't want to spend $200 but will risk losing all...

    Trekking poles-yes or no?

    SPOT ON. I can live without them going uphill, but your knees and quads will thank you on the way down. There is a learning curve to using them properly so they actually help. You'll be at a bit slower pace until you get the rhythm down.

    Trouble with 22lr dope

    Funny, I've got a similar issue -- Using Center X with a CZ 457. I'm working in MOA but my difference is similar. I'm using a NF scope with hash marks so I'm pretty sure it's not a scope tracking problem. I did realize my target is actually 206 yds vs 200, but even with that adjustment it's...

    CZ 457

    Dear Sir, I apologize--probably should have used the "sarcasm" emoji--I was just (trying) to be humorous...I also have some CZ's that shoot beyond their capability. For example, this little skinny barreled 452 (although it has been bedded and has an aftermarket trigger)...and that's with cheap...

    CZ 457

    Yeah but that was shot in a giant vacuum tube filled with Argon and a mechanical trigger....

    Does cleaning your barrel throw off the first shot?

    white or dark meat? :geek: When I'm getting ready for a serious hunt, I clean my chosen rifle, then shoot at least five fouling shots. THEN, the next time I go to the range I put up a target at 200 yards and shoot it-- one shot. Rifle goes back in the case. a few days later, when I'm back at...

    Caliber choice.

    I've really enjoyed my 6BR. Here's a nice writeup over at AccurateShooter if you haven't yet read: 6BR Are you an avid/accomplished reloader?
