      CZ 457 Varmint AT ONE arriving soon. How to accessorize and other questions.

      Thx for the info. I ordered some 10 round mags. Gonna go through my ammo to see what all is there. I think i bought some cci for scouts years back. Then they started making us use their ammo. Funny you mention burris xtr II and vortex viper. Both of those were on my radar. I have buddy...

      CZ 457 Varmint AT ONE arriving soon. How to accessorize and other questions.

      (Background story first 2 paragraphs. Skip to 3rd to get more on topic.) This is offshoot of Trickg thread on getting a Bergara vs CZ. I have been thinking of getting into precision shooting for a while. Was looking at rpr 6.5 creedmore. But didn't get it before covid and price went up like...

      CZ 457, Bergara B14R, or....?

      This Damn thread! Now I went ahead and ordered the CZ 457 Varmint AT-ONE 24"! You Cost me a lot of money TrickG, lol. Since don't have plans right now for suppressor, figured I'd go with the 24" and not worry of what it might look like with a can down the road. And 16.5" isn't available...

      CZ 457, Bergara B14R, or....?

      If you want longer, put a can on and length will look better, lol. That's the issue. The AT-ONE comes in 16.5" and 24". if get short one, I think looks too small, but length will be fine with suppressor. if get 24", although haven't seen live, I think it probably looks fine, but it may not...

      CZ 457, Bergara B14R, or....?

      I went back and browsed a little near when you said you ordered one, but didn't see length. Is that the 18" or 20"? All look sunk. Never saw those targets. I guess 2 person game from what I can read on them.

      CZ 457, Bergara B14R, or....?

      Lol. Or a target! I like when people say I shot this 5 shot group, blah, blah. But Never mention distance. Could be 25 yards!

      CZ 457, Bergara B14R, or....?

      Well, i was able to see a varmint 20.5" and varmint pro 16.5". Definitely liked the looks of varmint over the varmint pro. 16.5" looks too short. I would buy varmint, but no threaded barrel. Hanover Armory Threads for $120, if in future I wanted to do that. Are they reputable in threading? I...

      CZ 457, Bergara B14R, or....?

      Thx . I would love to see both. Problem is, either is hard to find. Know anywhere locally that has them? I'm in Ellicott City. Searching on gun.deals and no place even has them in stock. As far as uses: i am only member AGC so 200 yards max. I will put scope on it. I doubt doing matches. At...

      CZ 457, Bergara B14R, or....?

      So thinking about a CZ 457 varmint AT- ONE. Has Threaded barrel if in future want to suppress or a tuner. Heavy barrel. Has Some adjustment in stock. And I like looks. Better than MTR, which I don't like. Price not bad at Msrp $779. Hard to find it though. It is available in 16.5" and 24"...

      Making Wood barrel vice blocks

      Thx. Horizontally was my thought as well. You mean there aren't a lot of 92 ⅝" diameter trees to make studs from . Hell, it's a small block of wood. If it breaks, just try the other way. I overthink things too much, lol.

      Making Wood barrel vice blocks

      I need to get front sight off sub2000. I need to hold barrel in vice. I was going to try to make blocks from wood. So the barrel is about 9/16" diameter. Plan is to drill 9/16" hole in block of wood, then cut wood through the hole. The 3/16" thickness of the blade will mean that 2 sides will...

      CZ 457, Bergara B14R, or....?

      Think of it this way- If you are shooting at 200 yards, where does the barrel need to point? up above target a little. where would scope point? It would be on target. The further distance, the more barrel needs to point up. Do you have enough adjustment in scope to keep it on target as...

      CZ 457, Bergara B14R, or....?

      Interesting. Goes to show you how long ago I started thinking about getting good 22lr cause back then, it was only Mesa. They opened the OH site in 2020. Interesting to note that they suggest rifle have 750 rounds before testing. You read that right-750. For now maybe I'll play with my...

      CZ 457, Bergara B14R, or....?

      Something not mentioned about ammo. When i started looking into 22lr, i learned that Lapua has a program where you send your gun, or make appt and take it with you. They set your gun up in a test stand and test fire different types/ lots of their ammo. Then give you ability to buy bulk of...

      CZ 457, Bergara B14R, or....?

      I was same place as you trickg. First thought about RPR. Then was organizing old issues of American Rifleman and in May 2023 issue there was article about getting started in long range rimfire competition. I have it if want to browse it. They mention CZ, Bergara, Tikka. Looked at them a...

      Shipping guns?

      Purchased a bullpup shotgun online from Palmetto State Armory and sent to FFL. Got it home and noticed finish is blemished. Manufacturer sent me RMA and UPS label. I have the box it came in, which has zip tie that holds gun from moving around. Is that the way they usually ship them, or do...

      MD Handgun Lock Exchange

      Still have it, but there are cable locks that are acceptable. I found that I had one that was on list and just took it last purchase.

      SB387 "Public Safety - Untraceable Firearms" - The Ban on Private Firearm Making

      I'm shocked it fit! I thought way back on this thread it was felt that it would not and therefore they couldn't be registered. Seems like ages ago-137 pages!
