I know its compact, but why does that rifle look like so small in front of the motor? Edited, something still looks strange! Edited June 2, 2018 by Deker Quote Link to post

Dave74 107 Posted June 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 Lol I’m not sure what that means either,but it does look small,but you can clearly see the reflection of rifle in nice shiny motor door Quote Link to post
Dig-deep-draw-charlie 2,713 Posted June 1, 2018 Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 It’ looks small because it is a small rifle.... lol .. . Also that not exactly a Suzuki jimmy sitting beside it, it’s a Big motor deker 2 Quote Link to post
Meece 1,957 Posted June 1, 2018 Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 Blimey, that is one massive rabbit !! if you l scale that rabbit up to the size of the rifle ! Perhaps you'd need a big truck like that to get a few of them back home. Or a pack mule. Quote Link to post
Dave74 107 Posted June 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2018 In comparison Quote Link to post
Dave74 107 Posted June 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 Is there any 1417 owners think the spent cartridge ejection in the rifle isn’t the best,I find you have to bolt it very intent for it to throw a spent case clear?in comparison to a cz they throw the case very well.

Yes I agree, if you flick the bolt back they eject fine, but if you open the bolt slowly the ejection is lazy to say the least. Quote Link to post

Dave74 107 Posted June 10, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 So how’s the ejection on it Quote Link to post
Brickhill 28 Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 Good chucks ‘em out a country mile. I’ve had it near on six years and it’s never missed a beat. The only thing I would say is that the bolt is noisier to work than my Sako .22 LR. Quote Link to post
andykllhr 91 Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 I've had mine for nearly two weeks and I'm in love with it, I cannot see this rifle ever leaving my cabinet. I just bought 250 Eley subs with mine and it's a tack driver, what ammo are you using Dave? Quote Link to post
philpot 4,967 Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 I keep seeing these thumbhole stocks which is really making me want to take my crappy beech stock off and get one of these. I might find something at the game fair. Phil 1 Quote Link to post
andykllhr 91 Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 I think they are made by custom stocks of Sheffield, I'm considering swapping mine out for a stippled, rose capped version, I'll let you know if I sell mine if you're interested Philpot? 1 Quote Link to post
