What's The Best Rimfire For Rabbits And F0Xs
Wino replied to d.nelson's topic in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns
Put together. -
I've got a BRNO/CZ 22 and it's got a 12.5' barrel plus mod. Lovely rifle.
-
A 22LR if they are in sensible range. Use something like CCI Velocitors and ask your FEO.
-
I love my BRNO Mod 2 in 22lr, lovely old gun and I shoot more with it than the CZ 452 HMR I have. No point in spending more than you need to on a tool, which is what a rifle is.

A member of the Dursley Rifle and Pistol Club has one, it's awesome, but not very accurate...
-
No, S-Tex (whatever that is).

I bought a Deerhunter "Shellbrook" jacket recently for £45 which was advertised as waterproof and breathable, one trip out and I was soaked to the skin. Took it back.
-
Thanks Walshie and Paulus, I'll tell him.

I know this isn't strictly what the OP asked but on a related note Avon & Somerset want you to have a burglar alarm installed at over (I think) five guns. When I got my FAC I already owned four shotguns and the Glos FEO cleared my Brattonsound 5-gun cab for eight, and a 3-gun takedown in my garage for four.
-
Quite true, you could always use the day v night setup argument too. In fact I did it more to get an extra (different) rifle and mod slot to get a free 1-for-1 later down the line. In fact can someone answer a quick question? I have a mate who wants to add two slots for rifles, and wants mods too. Is that four or two slots, and therefore four lots of £26 or two??
-
I'll have a look, thanks.
-
Actually same question for trousers too. Use waders on the marsh but not for lying in wet grass.
-
I'm getting fed up with finding a plain green/brown jacket for hunting that's actually waterproof, including having waterproof pockets. Can't spend too much £££ at the moment, what do people use?
-
I honestly think the low price of these can actually put people off. For a foxing round they're fine. If you're looking at scoring three hits on a 5p piece a long way away then maybe not.
-
I have two slots for a 22 rimfire. Just told them I wanted a bolt and a semi.
-
I've got a slot for a 223 with 'fox control' as the condition. I'm still not 100% sure about what centrefire to get (I've been mentored up to a 243) so I might whack in a one-for-one.
-
I have a old AYA no.3 and was told by a very well-known gunsmith to use them, as the firing pins are notoriously apt to break. I agree that in modern guns, no.
-
Yeah I totally agree. I'be got 2 slots for 22 so could have a bolt and a semi but I can see a greater need, where I shoot, for more accuracy and a slower rate of fire than the opposite.
-
Looking for spare mag for a BRNO Mod 2 in 22lr, if anyone has one knocking about. Any capacity. Thanks. Please PM me.
-
Yes they do. A mate of mine has just done this with a CZ452 varmint. Cost £130 delivered (inc tax) and involved drilling (I think) one hole and it fitted. It was a 22lr stock originally. Apparently it was a very very easy job. It transformed the gun and it looks amazing. Boyds stocks are excellent value.
-
I love pigeon breast and best of all my little boy helps me pluck, breast and cook them. Proper little hunter he's going to be.
-
Sorry to resurrect this after so much time but did you find somewhere and if so what sort of price?
-
Welcome home mate and happy (one-way) shooting!
