How was the installation of the Yodave trigger spring... did it make a big difference?
Made a huge difference. From 2.5 pounds to anything you want. Installation is easy. That said, adjustment is time consuming. The spring is very light so the other trigger parameters have to be adjusted as well. For example: I had my CZ trigger as low as ti would go, 2 1/4 - 2 1/2 pounds. I installed the Yodave and the weight adjustment almost ran out of thread to bring it back to 1.5 pounds. You fix that by adjusting the two travel adjustments. Once its all correct and pull weight is in your range, then do all the safety checks and its good to go. Very crisp, light and with no overtravel.
Thank you! Ordering one now!
You are welcome. Be certain that you get it just right and do the safety checks multiple times. Triggers under 2 1/2 pounds or even 3 pounds are not for the regular "do it all rifle". My rifle at only 1 1/2 pounds only gets shot in controlled range situations with all the safeties that go with that environment. At any other time it is always empty. I don't consider it safe for a "carry in the woods" rifle at that trigger weight.
Very Nice!! I see the Hoptic Blanket on the cheek riser. I'm wondering if it is easy to remove? It would be the only way to get to the riser screws if they ever got loose. A very few people have had the problem. I have the same stock in black on my CS-457. Works fabulous!
Well done!

What are you using to hang them? Whatever it is I need some.
I have a couple of those hangers. Don't have them mounted here but will at my new house. I bought mine from a guy at a Greenville gun show. I'd like to know where you bought yours.
Off the website linked above. They had a booth at Cowboy Christmas in Vegas a few years back, bought 4 then, just bought 3 more off the website.
Beautiful Docor....tactical 3D
Thanks for the link, I didn't see it as your reply was on the next page.
Thank you! The Hoptic blanket is pretty easy to remove if need be, but don't expect it to stick back on solidly. Two come in a pack though so that's a plus. Neither of my two Bravos have had the screws come loose yet though, let's hope they stay that way.
Received my V-22S RB/RP action about a month ago, while I was still busy with corn harvest, so couldn't do anything with it for a week or more, as I'd tested positive for Covid-19, and had quarantined myself to the combine cab for 2 weeks. Covid had me pretty fatigued by the time it got dark; there was no energy to stand in front of a lathe after getting home from the field. But I finally caught a bit of a break due to a strong cold front that came through and dumped some freezing rain, which coincided with a fairly serious break-down of the combine's unloading auger that required me to disconnect & unhook the corn head, then road the combine 30 miles to the nearest J-D dealer who could repair it. I had two days to dial-in the Shilen ratchet rifled, select match R5 blank, and get the tenon, counterbore, and chamber cut. Then it was back to the field in the repaired combine to finish harvest. Whatever...I finally got the rifle assembled and was able to take it out to get a photo or two of it. Now, I'm really hoping to see the cold weather moderate enough to be able to get it on the bench and put rounds through it to (hopefully) finalize the tuner setting. Am liking the Flavio Fare trigger; though I currently have no way to measure the weight of the trigger break, based on some experience with a 2oz Jewel BR trigger, I believe I've got it set around 3oz. I have a Sightron SIII 45x45 scope on it, and am pretty pleased with the clarity, ease of adjusting parallax, and tracking. The tuner is a Pro-X, the stock is a McMillan Kestros (though I'm also playing with it in a Shehane Tracker). So far, it's everything I'd hoped it would be, though I feel to get the most out of it, I'm going to have to build or buy a single piece rest for it. I'm having a hard time getting it to sit steady in either the old Hart rest in the photo of it in the Kestros stock, or my homemade stainless rest in the photo of it in the Shehane stock. Obviously, I also need a more substantial bench too, and am going to have to pour some concrete next spring when it warms up.

Tikka T1x Boyd's One stock, Bushnell Optics. I searched long and hard reading a ton of reviews on many brands of bolt action .22LR ended the choice with the T1x.
I probably should be walking the same line with seeking homes for the collection. I have a ton of items and I know that my wife will have a difficult time figuring what items go with what. Let alone that value. I fear someone will approach her after my passing wave a few k and she will accept it and suffer a major loss.
Have you thought about making a list for your wife describing the item and the minimum to maximum asking price she should ask for each of them?
You could designate a number on the written list for each item and then tag the item with the same number so she doesn't confuse them.
Not a bad idea! I have everything listed on a spreadsheet with quantities and purchase price. It wouldn't take much to add columns with hi-low and a color code. I could probably put together containers that would be associated with my different loading presses setting a price as a system rather than parting it all out. It would take a massive amount of time and management to list each part on say ebay or a firearm auction site. I could even give her a hi-low listing for the whole shooting match.
Finally getting back into the Rifle shooting after stepping away for a couple of years. I drank the NRL22 Kool-Aid. I am loving the sport and the people in it. I still have some of my Center Fire rifles. I have almost 1K rounds down the tube and it continues to impress me every range trip. It loves SK Ammo.

Picked up a Volquartsen bolt for the 22/45…
Browning T-bolt in 17 hmr. Talley rings, Nikon prostaff rimfire. Perfect little hunting setup.
Cz457 Varmint in a KRG Bravo with the vortex razor HD.
still running it in, and Decent ammo is hard to find right now. Current favourite (but tighter than cci std) is Eley Force
Never bothered with buying match type ammo for rimfire. might have to change that

Liar
Most recent setup now lol 20” MTU barrelLiar
I’ll like it better in the TCS.
You got an r700 action I can see if this chassis will cycle rounds through? Lol
You need to borrow a 700 action? I have a couple of them.
Briefly lol just need to cycle a few rounds through an AICS mag to see if the mag catch needs to be ground down
None of mine are magazine fed, but if it will work you welcome to borrow one.
I’ll play

@GoggledIt is a purveyor of rifle-porn!
It is an obscenely good-looking rifle. I love what Steyr does with their barrels.
When you let anyone handle your rifle, do they ever ask for a private room?
