    Own rare CZ 453 but want something else

    Does it come with a set trigger?

    Own rare CZ 453 but want something else

    Have put one box of 50 down the tube. Is in immaculate condition. Only issue is that it doesn't have a threaded bbl. (Yeah. I know I could have it threaded but ruin any value). Looking at a Ruger Precision or a Savage A22 Lite. Any thoughts or other suggestions? Thanks.

    5;56 velocity change and don't know why

    About 3 years. Had surgery and was down for over a year. Slow recovery after that.

    Other's have made that same deduction.. It is the logical reason when it was fine before. The gun has several thousand rounds down the tube.

    Would that account for a 300 fps drop? This is my 3 guns load. Doesn't need to be super accurate.

    Came home and picked out 10 pieces of brass with same headstamp. Measured the load by hand then back to the range. I called a friend to meet me there with his chrono. We set them up end to end. Same results. 2550 avg.

    Bullet weight: 55 gr Powder: 23.0 grains H4895 Brass: Mixed headstamp Rifle: Standard AR W/ 16 barrel (twist unimportant) I've used the same load for 20 years. It had a 2900 fps give or take. Since I used range pick up, that caused some deviation. I put a new optic on it...
