Re: Ned Kelly needs some advice!
its the same one as I still have, CZ American. The rifle that shot the dingo is now the Jab 20 and the barrel is punching holes with 69smks for Knackers!

Re: Ned Kelly needs some advice!
mud is just about how clear the registry are. They recorded the calibre change to 204r, apparently JAB 20 was too hard, oh and they still think I have a T3 swede I sold to Lowndsie (I think) well over a year ago, and the 17m4 is still a 222. Bloody beaurocrats!

Re: Ned Kelly needs some advice!
Hey Ned,
As far as the C/F, I reckon you are spot on with the 223, great little cartridge, all the world use it now, no recoil, hard hitting and look at the round choice you have. WOLF ammo, dirt cheap and shoots quite ok, god bless the russians. Brands, who would guess, the base model Remingtons like the SPS Varmint are ok but I have one and not very happy with it. On the other hand I also have a Remington VSSF in 223 and its a superb rifle. Anyone have an opinion of the CZ centrefires, maybe they are ok.
Now the 22, what about considering upping a little to the 22 mag. Still does what the 22 does but adds a bit more range and hitting power into the equation. The only downside too the 22 WMR is the bullets are a bit more expensive. If you go to the range each day and shoot 100 rounds then it can become expensive, but if you just shoot a few rounds as practice the go varminting, then the cost equation isnt worth considering. Overall my opinion is the 22 WMR offers a good advantage over the 22 LR, especially since you can still get the superbly accurate CZ 452 Amercian in 22WMR.
Shotguns, who knows, after all, arent they a couple of bits of pipe just welded together. I thought the only thing that seperated a shotgun now was how it felt in your shoulder.

thanks again.
