rabbiting 1 Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 I am currently looking to update my rabbiting gun. At the moment i shoot mostly with the shotgun and a few with a little .22 air rifle. i was thinking of a .22 T bolt 16 inch barrel. Is this the way to go or is there anything different on the market. Cheers for help Ollie Quote Link to post
oman 23 Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Ruger 10 22 would be good. great little gun Quote Link to post
rabbiting 1 Posted October 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Brno CZ .22LR is what was recommended to me. cheers for help Quote Link to post
wabbit slayer 16 Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Brno / CZ 22LR is the better gun, got one myself and it far outshoots me. Loads about for not a lot of money . Quote Link to post
The Duncan 802 Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Loving my CZ511 semi auto. With RWS subs it cycles flawlessly and has more than acceptable accuracy. My only slight criticism is that the trigger could be a bit lighter - post coming up! The fast repeat shots are an excellent plus point D Quote Link to post
Mrg 8 Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Brno cz awsome piece of out wouldnt trade mine for the world ! Quote Link to post

martin 332 Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 I've been using an 'A' bolt for over 20 yrs and it is a great gun,never let me down and hasn't had the barrel cleaned since I bought it...... Quote Link to post

So...an A bolt, a Simmons 3.5-10x50 WTC, is that a Sako Mod and a Deben Max, and just 4 bunnies, well everything else seems ok so perhaps cleaning the rifle will improve the bag!! :laugh: :laugh: :thumbs: ATB!

PLEDGEY 496 Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 CZ 452 with SAK MOD and a MTC Mamba lite scope. I find 40gr winchester hollow points work best. I have never cleaned mine either. Quote Link to post
rabbiting 1 Posted October 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 cheers for help lads. what distance would they take a fox as i wouldn think they would have the power. what would be reasonable price for cz. Quote Link to post
Deker 3,478 Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 cheers for help lads. what distance would they take a fox as i wouldn think they would have the power. what would be reasonable price for cz. A sub sonic .22lr has the power to stop a fox at 100 + yards no problem. The simple fact is to keep this humane you need to know the rifle/ammo/ballistics very well and be able to deliver the shot precisely to do that. 100 is not normally a distance to consider for fox, if you need that range, or further, then you need to consider a different tool.

What kind off money would second hand or new cz be ?? cheers Ollie Quote Link to post
Mrg 8 Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 My rifle is an old brno I had barrel taken down to 16" all for about. 150 quid from my local rifle club ! Maybe a good place 2 start ? It wont win any beauty contests but is a brilliant piece of kit ! I agree. 40g winchester sub Sonics. Best. Round . Sak mod also Quote Link to post
rabbiting 1 Posted October 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Thanks mate. Not looking win no beauty contest just wan good fireing rifle as the area is heavy enough ditches and a new gun would age pretty quickly which i found out the hard way with the browning shot gun i bought paid big money for very clean second hand gun and in the space of a few years it look a different gun. Is there anyway to clean scratchs off he barrels and stock of gun ?? cheers Ollie Quote Link to post
