CZ .204 Varmint at the Range Yesterday

Post by Shamu25 »

Amazed myself with 4 of 5 shots through the same hole at 100 yds even in a breeze and heat distortion through my inexpensive 6.5-20X50 Whitetail Classic scope complete with 66 yr old eyes....maybe luck.... don't know....but I'll take it.

Thanks..............and the best part is that it was $580 NIB from gunbroker.com. Doesn't break the piggy bank for what you get. Mine has the English walnut stock....very nice and I only floated the barrel and nothing else

The way I shake it's a wonder that I ever shot a group that good. I have done lots of 1/2" groups but never that tight. I have been advised that a competition seating die may cure the flyer but I also can't out rule the shooter if you know what I mean. Using simple Lee dies,,,neck sizing only. Thanks for the wonderful comments. Now to show a coyote how accurate it is. Maybe this fall.

Shamu, great shooting. I am trying to shrink my group sizes and have become convinced the biggest problem is not rifles, it's the nut behind my trigger. :-)

Hey Great shooting Shamu....I have been trying to tighten mine (.204 CZ-527 Varmint) up a bit.....Coyotes are my main target this year.......GTO if you are looking for loaded sbk 39 grainers....Found some through Sportsmans guide....Federal Brand........Not that I am pumping them over another ....just stating the facts....
