    CCI'S 'CLEAN-22' AMMUNITION

    Don't know... I do know that I've shot unknown multitudes of coated rounds through my handguns in USPSA matches over the 15 years I played. I shot at least 15K through my 2011 Triangle Shooting Sports .40 Limited gun without cleaning the barrel other than varsol at the parts washer tank with a...

    Low buck bipod recommendations.

    Got mine today. Looks fine to me. I guess it's like the line in the old C&W song.... "Until you've tasted caviar, peanut butter does just fine." It fit very snugly and appears solid and functional on my KRG Bravo...

    CZ 457 LRP

    Hope they offer it (an MTR chambered barrel from the website) but.... CZ might use the nice chamber as a lever to force you to buy the more expensive rifle... It's still to soon to say without the rifle being released to distributors but.... I am hoping this is not like the Cadillac Cimarron...

    CZ 457 LRP

    I bought the Varmint with the 20" barrel, a Bravo chassis and then spent 35 on a Scar rail and 20 on a nice bolt knob. $900.00 for a pretty nice rifle I will be happy to drag out in front of anyone... The match chamber may be a plus but the fluting, ehhh .... At the same cost I definitely...

    CZ 457

    I can't see it making it at the same cost as a Manners stocked rifle.... Perhaps the stock is a higher quality than it appears in the photos. At the same cost as the AT Varmint yea....that would be great. Just my .02.....

    Low buck bipod recommendations.

    Gosh I am a cheap bastard.... Per Kod's post I am going to get the West-Lake Tactical knockoff and risk 25 bucks. Harris website has several package deals for ~180 that look like the WLT version.. If it breaks I will then acknowledge what I already know.... Per my opening sentence to this...

    Low buck bipod recommendations.

    I had no clue... LOL. I am trying to open up my mind to what is needed rather than what I thought I needed. Thanks for the help! I am looking up the products listed and re-evaluating my position/mindset....

    Low buck bipod recommendations.

    Thanks Dillhole. I have edited my original post heading... That answers a question I didn't mean to ask but would have after I figure out what bipod to use.

    Low buck bipod recommendations.

    Woops. Thanks goosed. As to your comments/question I expect the bipod to support the front of my rifle in a controlled and steady manner and be a substitute for a bench type front rest. I may try some of the competitive rimfire games although none are shot at my two local ranges. I am just about...

    Looking for recommendations for a "Best Bang for the Buck" bipod solution to use with my KRG Bravo chassis. Is this a realistic goal?

    KRG CZ 457 Chassis

    Bravo has arrived and is a nicely done high quality piece. Solid with nicely finished machine work. Plastic is quality and has a very solid (IMO) high quality feel and appearance. My experiences with chassis is limited to a couple of pieces from ACIS but I see noting less in any regard from...

    CZ 457

    What chamber does the "regular" 457 have.....? Or should I ask for the closest approximation to a know chamber design.

    Unsupported instruction

    In the July 1st 1922 issue of “ARMS AND THE MAN” we find such an excellent article on “Off Hand Rifle Shooting” by H. M. Pope quoted herewith: “This is written with the hope that it will help riflemen generally to make better offhand scores; it is based upon my many years’ association with the...
