Thanks for posting the images. I've held a lux and classic model side by side and found the stock a much nicer fit for scope use on the classic. The down side was to me they are less pretty and added...

I'm thinking of buying a CZ Lux in 22 hornet. I'll be using a set of medium height mounts to assist with scope clearance. This will slightly worsen the fit and alignment of eye to scope as the comb...

Officially retire in 17 working days after 46 years 3 months and 8 days!:bigsmyl2:
I can picture a lot of casting and shooting Martinis coming up every other day on my own farm with it's rifle...

I've spoken to one of our best local custom gunsmiths. Given the time to produce a quality martini he thinks there will be no change from $3500 (AUD). I'm now thinking of converting a CZ 527 to a bee...

I agree with the cadet action . I have a Sportco 22 hornet (an Australian 310 cadet conversion). Very accurate and light.
I'd like one in 218 bee and 25/20. Great little walk around rifle for small...

I clean just like shooting lubed cast lead bullets with smokeless. Loose dry patch only. No issues. Cleans away powder residue that may absorb moisture and lead to rust. I keep a close eye and don't...

Nice to know we have talent like that in Australia. I'll be making enquiries.

Great results there DD. What mould and paper are you using?

What do you use to lube you reloading press? Same for the ram as the linkages? How often do you do it?
Thanks for posting polar hunter. Interesting videos. let us know how it goes.

That thing is a tank. If you ever tire of the reloading and casting thing you've got a substantial boat mooring. Congrats on your herculean turret.

Randy that looks like primo quality. I can see one in my future.
The new fixed 4 or 6 power scope is a 3-9 power. There's worse things to worry about.

They don't make em like that used to. That sadly applies to a few brands.
Forum: Factory Rifles
An interesting idea. It got me thinking, how about rebarreling a 77/44 to 357/44 Bain & Davis? Alot more money but you keep the factory Mag and efectively get similar 357 max peformance.
Forum: Single Shot Guns
Even if they aren't dangerous break them down anyway. With such a big variation in charge weight they'll likely shoot all over the place making them not even good for plinking or practice.
Forum: Single Shot Guns
You didn't say that you have brass, dies and an appropriate sized heeled bullet mold. If you don't then by the time you buy all of that you're well on the way to re boring or re barreling. Don't get...

If your brother wouldn't object, I'd make a 218 bee, 25/20, 32/20 or 357mag out of it. It's great to have choices!

I like them in the chambering they are issued in. Why do you want to change it?
Altheating on this board has loads of experience with this rifle and cast. Do a search. I've shot the Lee 125gn RF at subsonic velocities using TB and special brass. Accuracy has been mediocre, but...

My fave is the victorinox Swiss tool. Quality all the way. It's heavy, but has plenty of use. I also have a supertool 300. it's not quite the quality of the victorinox but I like the replaceable...
