Ahhhhh... I should have qualified... I like me some soul in my rifles and have a hard time thinking about anything without a wood stock! haha! That said, I might have considered that if I had seen it first, but alas I am happy being a CZ fanboy at the moment. I am sure I will be expanding on that eventually though. There is a synthetic stock Left hand user Ruger 10/22 from their custom shop I am quite infatuated with too. Might have to be my first semi-auto .22 when I can again not fear sneaking one past the wife!

Didn't find them to be any more accurate than the 20's to be honest. When i find one more accurate than a 453 I might consider keeping.

Those look like ski hill chairlift supports. They'll put a kink in your neck.

I don't fire any of my firearms out of a truck, so that isn't a concern for me.

Next ranch? 12 miles. Nearest cop? 50 miles. I'm fine with it. Gophers skeedaddle when they see people. They love trucks. "Just a big blue cow boys. Relax and enjoy some grub."

While you're being legal I'll whack more.

I just mounted a leupold freedom 3-9x40 on this CZ. It has high warne rings and now that it is mounted you might actually be able to get away with medium ring mounts. Leupold has a smaller ocular piece than a lot of other manufacturers so that will help with bolt clearance. If you want more than your finger tips on it then you will need high ring mounts.

Most fix powered scopes (6X) work just fine on CZ rimfires. Ditch the big variable adjustment noobs and run Warne rings. I have several cz's (452 and up) NONE require high or extra high rings.

- Sightron rifle scopes, 4.5x14x42mm or 4x16x42mm
especially! with the HHR reticle. (no duplex pls.)
