Doyler i have three CZs and they all shoot under an inch at 100yds...In my opinion they are like a great old work horse..Will never let you down. What will you be hunting on your new permission?

.223 is renowned as THE foxing calibre and is your best bet for charlie

 

if you're hunting rabbits aswell on your new permission a .223 will render the meat unfit for sale unless head shots are taken, bearing that in mind you will probably blow many of the heads off!!

 

a .17HMR is capable of tackling rabbits and foxes. The rabbits heads will left attatched and body shots will be more permissable. It is not the ideal calibre for foxes but as long as the distaces of which the shots are taken are of a hundred metres and under and are placed at the head or neck of the fox it can be very effecient.

Part of its efficiency is due to its flat shooting up to one hundred metres which means less calculations regarding ballistics and in turn less mistakes/time needed to take a shot. Also it is a more predictable round as there are less ricochets this is because the bullet fragments on impact (not accounting for the odd stone etc) this may be more safe depending on the surrundings of your new permmission.

 

makes - sako offer accurate rifles and also make their own centrefire ammunition which is reliable (my personal preference).

Go the 223... Have a look at the cz 527 kevlar or laminated stock...They have an adjustable trigger and a 1 in 9 twist... and easy on the wallet

223 is a terrific all-purpose calibre. I am a big fan of a rifle that can do more than one job, 223 ticks rabbits, foxes, small deer and other similarly-sized creatures.

 

If roe or larger are reguarly on the menu, 243 might potentially be a better choice.

 

I have just put in for a 223 lightweight rifle, my heavy Howa has been great but it will be used on the range where it belongs, and a lighter beast will do everything else.

 

There is a valid case for 17HMR and 223, as the 17HMR is still a lot quieter than 223 and mostly cheaper to run, too. That leaves the 223 for foxes and small deer and it's great for both.
