Thanks for the info. GREATLY appreciated!!!

This purchase will be a total shot in the dark, as I have not handled a CZ45x of any flavor.

What is the issue with the mag/bolt operation??

Anybody own a CZ455 (any model) in 22 RF? Opinions please.

Looking to add another 22 rimfire to the group.

LOVE the severe swept back horns. NICE!!

Update. Trigger work - completed. Per a couple articles on the web, with....AHEM...a little file work, and new spring from ACE hardware, M77/22 now has a nice 4.5 lb trigger. A LOT better than the NINE pounder + as it arrived. BOYDS stock arrived safe and sound. Believe it or not, I am bedding the a...

futuretrades - Thanks for the tip on the trigger. Going to work on the factory trigger....at least for now. Excellent article with pictures & diagram on one of the dedicated rimfire websites. Could not sleep, so, at 02:00, I am in the garage wearing sandals and fruit of the looms (yeah....too mu...

Mrs and I made a trip to the range tonight. Sighted in at 25 yards while running a variety of ammo brands (CCI mini mag, CCI Blazer, Tac 22, Armscor, & Winchester Power Point). Moved over to 100 yards. As normal, the Blazer was like launching water balloons. :) Tac 22 was a little better, but no...

Purchased from a private party. They won the rifle in a raffle. Looked at several scopes on hand, selected a vintage 2.5-10x44 Tasco (Japan glass), and mounted accordingly. Of interest, I use a product made by IOSSO, called Gun Brite for the external metal care of firearms. Even though this rifle ha...

PLEASE try other powders, but IMR4064, in most cases, is one of, if not THE powder, for Swifties!

Have lusted after a Ruger M77/22 for a LONG time. Finally made the deal on one today. Just a blued with plastic stock, but it was new in the box. Have held several flavors of rimfire bolt action rifles, but the M77/22 have always felt the best. Hope it shoots. Going to leave as is for the time being...

They, like everybody else, is trying to catch up from last year. Does Black Hole manufacture their own barrels? Or just machine them??

Don't forget to consider Hodgdon HS6.

I run this powder in 9mm, 38 Special, 357 Magnum, 40 S & W, 45 ACP, and 44 Magnum. Accurate, plenty of speed, and clean burning.

Hodgdon HS6 works rather well in my 9mm, 38 Special, 357 Magnum, 40 S & W, 45 ACP, & 44 Magnum.

What is neck thickness prior to necking down? What is neck thickness AFTER necking down? IMHO, I would neck turn BEFORE necking down. Otherwise, you will end up with "donuts" at the neck/shoulder junction. As RIO suggested, check TIR. Also check how much neck tension on a necked down, but ...

Well, so far, so good.

2 tablespoons of Dawn dish soap with a teaspoon of Lemi Shine - REALLY makes brass clean.


I have even went as far as, NOT depriming pistol brass (9, 40, 45), and cleaning with the new machine.

Need to load some rounds and see if I notice a difference in cleanliness.
