Re: Trainger gun suggestions
I own a Savage 22lr and a CZ 452 22lr. Both rifles have optics. Both rifles are detach mag. Both rifles are left handed bolt guns.
both rifle shoot very well.
I like the CZ much more.
The Savage feels like a cheap rifle, and it is. I do shoot very good groups with both.
So its up to you. The quality to cost ratio goes to the CZ, its cheap, and high quality. The Savage only beats the CZ is price. The CZ is a much better rifle I think.
but both rifles will do what you ask of them.
As far as optics go, I use a Sightron SI 3-9 mildot with a 150yd ZERO. I use Mil-Hold for all engagements.
One last thing, if you plan on upgrading the rifle, new stock, new trigger and all that as time goes by, get the CZ. Because when you get done with it, it will be a killer rifle. IF you just plan on shooting the hell out of it, get the CZ anyhow. Its a better rifle.
If you look at the CZ's I would get the 452 LUX do to the ability to use the iron sights and upgrade to a optic at some other time. The iron sights on the LUX will get you to 200yds just fine.
