    Vortex PST Gen1 6-24 FFP Failure

    If you send your Gen1 scope in, most likely they don't support that scope anymore so they'll send a brand new Gen2 5-25 to replace it. They do have a very good warranty service, but the object of the exercise is not to NEED that. Good luck with your choice.

    Lother-Walther 22LR barrel install

    I just located the post where I got my info. It's the first sticky post CZ 457 from 2018. It's long, but there is good info throughout. Page 23 has the McMaster - Carr part numbers for the bolt shims. Here is a link...... https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/cz-457.6911517/

    Lother-Walther 22LR barrel install

    I saw a post about measuring headspace somewhere on this forum, and bought the depth gauges to measure it on my CZ457 after installing a LW barrel. I found my headspace was a little high, and used some shims that I bought from McMaster - Carr to shim the boltface out and decrease the headspace...

    what height rings to use

    My new Vudoo is coming soon. I am getting a 20" Kukri contour barrel on a gen 2 V22 action with an XLR chassis. I plan on using a Vortex gen1 PST 6 - 24 ffp scope on it. What brand and height rings will give me the best fit?

    Best aftermarket barrel for CZ 457

    I used Lapua Centerx, Eley Force, Eley Contact, Federal Match, CCI. At 50 yards Eley force and the Lapua were my best performers with groups ranging between .5" to just over an inch. Not too bad, but not consistantly good either. I back off to 100 yards and everything opens way up. Groups are...

    Best aftermarket barrel for CZ 457

    I ordered a 20.5" barrel from Lothar Walther. I heard a lot of good and some bad about all that I was considering. I let availability drive the bus because I didn't wish to wait several months.

    Best aftermarket barrel for CZ 457

    I'm looking to improve grouping at 100 yards and beyond on my CZ 457 Varmint. I have upgraded the Boyd's At-One stock with an XLR Element chassis. I have also lightened the trigger to 1.5 lb with a Yo Dave spring. I'm looking for replacement barrel suggestions ( brand , length and profile) to...

    I have been a lurker for a while. I finally bought a rifle to start a little distance shooting. A Savage model 11-VT which is sold as a package at Dick's Sporting Goods. It was on sale for $499!! Now I need to graduate from my .17HMR to .308! Should be a humbling experience!! At least there is...
