It cant be too hard to organise, I say we just pick a date, put it up a week or two in advance and if no one else comes then too bad for them. That and they would be branded worse than mexicans!

Trev

I can only just imagine. I am sure it will be a great looker and shoot like stink!

They are CZ factory rings, came with the rifle.

That sure is a sexy little princess.
Enjoy it Mevo, when I need to replace my CZ527 it will be with another 527, the perfect hunting rifle I reckon. :wink:

And if you didnt see it in the "Sydney informal get together" thread here is a pic of how some of my hand loads went.

Thats five shots!

First time out with the rifle so no real load development, and straight out of the box and it produced this!

I also didnt run this rifle in so I reckon now that running in rifles is a complete WOFTAM.

Mevo if you "ran it in" you would have one perfect round hole :lol: :lol: :lol:
Jokes aside, I'm yet to se a CZ/brno that doesn't shoot great, and with a little tinkering they shoot fantastic. Enjoy the princess. Have you given her a name yet? :wink:

I read somewhere that CZ barrels are lapped and they have a factory target so have been shot before. I tried the fire one clean routine on my CZ, but got bored after 3 shots and started shooting groups!


Well done, so she's not just pretty! 8)

The factory test target had two of the three pills through a ragged hole :)

The third one was about an inch away or so....

An extremly lovely singer/songwriter from Sydney.

Gets decent airplay on JJJ but is not mainstream enough to get commercial airplay, even though she won an ARIA award this year.

I am going to see her play at homebake on the weekend!

If you have not guessed I am a Blasko tragic.

extremely lovely, that sounds nice. I am guessing you are nice to your Mum. My son loves his mum, respect for women starts there, a good trait in men.

I'm getting a bit too deep arent I :oops:

Sarah is a gorgeous girl - plays little country towns and even pubs all over the place. Fantastic voice, great personality - one of our very best entertainers.
