    CZ455 Modification Thread

    Thanks much, I found the same link and the whole thing was back together in a jiffy... Had the stock drilled for pillars today, and the pillars are prepped and cut to length. Also had the bolt knob installed as well as the DIP extended rail. Here are some pics of the progress:

    CZ455 Modification Thread

    Bone head move alert... In the process of tuning the trigger tonight with trying a different shim in the Yodave kit, I managed to allow the ball bearing that is a part of the sear to slide out from where ever it was resting against in the action. After repeated efforts to push the sear back...

    CZ455 Modification Thread

    Thanks Justin Amateur for the info. I just went to the garage and filed a steeper bevel on the heads of the J&P screws and now they fit fine. I do appreciate the info you gave since I may pillar and skim bed the action later and for sure I will need longer screws. I haven't seen the ones you...

    CZ 455 PT action screws torque value

    Apologies for hijacking the thread, but what action screws do you use with the PT? I don't have this combo but i have the 455 + Boyd's Tacticool stock, and the J&P screws I got for the factory 455 + walnut stock is too short in the front... Any suggestions? Thanks.

    CZ455 Modification Thread

    I believe the topic of this thread is CZ455 Modification Thread... Why people need to come in here discussing how this rifle is inferior to true match grade rimfire rifles is beyond me. Personally, I am modifying mine because I'm a constant tinkerer. I don't have a centerfire large caliber rifle...

    CZ455 Modification Thread

    Good for you... No relevance to this thread at all other than you had a CZ but thank you for sharing... My CZ 455 .22LR American is going through roughly the same transformation as described so far in the threads attached. Exceptions are I'm using a Boyd Tacticool stock, and CZ factory Varmint...

    CZ 455 Varmint Barrel

    Nevermind, went a bit further down this page and found another thread on this and then found the barrels on CZ's site... Actually a different question... Does anyone know the barrel diameter of the Varmint barrels?

    CZ 455 Varmint Barrel

    Hello all, Can anyone point me to where I could possibly find a factory varmint barrel in either .22lr or .17 HMR for my CZ 455? I got the American model in .22lr last year and while it shoots great, I would like to try the varmint barrel without having to go the expense of an...

    Marvel 1911 conversions and ammo

    Re: Marvel 1911 conversions and ammo Tried the kit today. Prior to the shoot I cleaned and lightly oiled the kit per instructions, and also disassembled the bags and cleaned and dry-lubed them also. I shot the session with CCI mini mag 40gr round nose as suggested... Initially, I had...

    Marvel 1911 conversions and ammo

    Re: Marvel 1911 conversions and ammo Super Bee 950, if you don't mind me asking, how many rounds have you shot through your conversion, and have you changed your recoil spring to a lesser weight than factory? Reason why I'm asking, is because I've heard of people buying lighter recoil...

    Marvel 1911 conversions and ammo

    Re: Marvel 1911 conversions and ammo Remington Thunderbolt and the like seems to be all I can find around here these days, with the usual Winchesters and Federals but those are recommended. I will give the Thunderbolt a go since I have it already and just break in the unit. I never thought...

    Marvel 1911 conversions and ammo

    Hello all, I just got my Marvel 1911 22lr Unit 2 conversion kit, and am itching to go to the range to try it out. So far upon first inspection, this looks to be a quality kit, and finish and fit is much better than my Kimber kit I sold... Anyway, Marvel recommends running either CCI...

    Converting my handguns and AR to .22lr...

    Starting with my Kimber 1911. Am planning to get either the Wilson Combat .22 conversion kit, or the Marvel Unit 2 conversion kit. I've had the Kimber conversion kit and it was a bag of problems and would not function reliably regardless what I fed it... Anyway, wondering if anyone here has had...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Longer screw needed for P6 Pearce grips?

    Hello all, Just got Pearce grips for my P6 and tried to put them on tonight. I find that the screws I currently have (aftermarket hex screws) were not long enough to reach the frame and screw in, have others also experienced this problem before? I read quite a bit prior to buying these...
