Grendel

I have the Grendel Ruger. It shoots an easy 1/2" group. Trigger came set at 3 lbs. I managed to set it to 2 lbs. Also shortened the magazine so it holds 2 rnds.

77/22h

I wrote the letter right after the 77/22 LR came on the market. Didn't send it. Found it in the summer of 93 . Wrote another letter and included the original letter with it.

Mark x

Beautiful work JRA. Have you ever mounted a Mini Mark X bottom metal to a CZ 527?I have the bottom metal and CZ but haven't figured out how to matte them together. Would be nice if CZ would do it.

17 Hornet

More scopes you might consider are the 2-7x and 3-9x Weaver 22 scopes. Very compact and look good on the CZ's. The crosshairs cover 1/2" at 100 yards, my main reason for using them. Most big game...
