    22 ammo lubrication

    Re: 22 ammo lubrication Just have a gunsmith lap your barrels, get all the rough factory burrs out from the button rifling and then you won't have to wax all your bullets.

    CZ 452 Varmint bolt extension modification

    I just wanted to show an easy quick fix for those out there like me who have the CZ452 Varmint with scope and had trouble hitting your thumb on the scope everytime you lifted the bolt to re-load.

    Options - .17 .22 in a reasonable price range.

    Re: Options - .17 .22 in a reasonable price range. my CZ452 Varmint model, is my best shooting 22LR, it is a tack driver, I bought it new for 419.00. Excellent gun, and before I shot it I went a step further by lapping the barrel, and I enjoy the hell out of it.

    Rifle Scopes USO or Premier

    Re: USO or Premier If you aren't going past 1000yards, you might find that the ST10 USO will be fine, custom built to your choosing. and you can load it up with options for around 1500.00. But if you need an adjustable scope, I'd still go USO, plenty of options to pick from, knobs, colors...

    Rifle Scopes I really need help narrowing down my choices.

    Re: I really need help narrowing down my choices. I've come to like USO, they have 5+/- different knob options on both the elevation and windage to choose from, in both MOA and 1/10Mil. Plus, when you order a USO you build it exactly the way you want it, and send the order in, they send back...

    Rifle Scopes Crooked Turret on my Falcon Menace!!

    Re: Crooked Turret on my Falcon Menace!! A warranty is a warranty. A 5 year warranty on a product should never matter who owns it or how many hands it passed thru. When you buy a car with a 10 year warranty, that car, no matter how many times it changes hands is still under warranty and ANY...
