The Silhouette range is perfect for windy days like this. Those bolts and small plates at 100 meters are a fun challenge. The big hanging plates are a great tool to check what's actually happening with your bullet too, if you're having trouble hitting the small stuff on the rails.

To get into the rabbit hole deeper, a tuner would  tighten groups and lessen vertical stringing of groups.

If you'll allow a voice to counter going deeper... Odds are good that you'll find a few things your CZ shoots great (MOA or slightly better). That's good enough to reliably knock bolts off a rail at 100 meters. Good enough to hit steel at 200 meters. With some luck your CZ will shoot that well with the "cheap" stuff like CCI SV. It might even shoot that well with MiniMags or Aguila SV. Spend your money on ammo volume. You'll shoot a lot more at 10-15 cpr than you will at 30+.

Go towards the light!

All due respect to esk808. A 22 rifle that puts up 0.2" - 0.3" groups is a true wonder and a worthy pursuit.

My new to me CZ 457 seems to like CCI SV (5 shots at 50 yards today, not too windy at Koko Head)
I have shot fewer than 50 rounds through this rifle but I think I'll stick with CCI SV for now.

What a treat. With some luck you'll find a few other similar cost ammo options your rifle shoots this well. CCI SV is plenty tight to go 200m (Big Bore lanes on Silhouette side) most days. This past Sunday was an exception. I'd call it a swirling mess: 3mil right to 1mil left of target minute to minute.

Give me $50 and I'll zero your rifle. 

I'll do it for $40 
You supply the ammo of course.

My 2 cents from much nearer the surface of the rabbit hole...

I'm having a lot of fun with my Savage Mark II TR & Vortex Diamondback Tactical. It shoots a bunch of ammo well enough for
 -- bolts at 100 meters and plates at 150 & 200 meters: Aguila SE SV, CCI SV, CCI MiniMags, CCI AR, Federal Gold Medal Target, S&B Club
 -- Silhouette Matches: Federal Champion and Blazer (both 40gr lead HV)

Being able to feed it such a wide variety of relatively cheap stuff is gold. If I had to feed it Lapua and Eley at 40+ cpr I wouldn't be shooting a fraction as much. I've put over 6,000 rounds through it since May 2021.

The next goal on my agenda is to get some 2.2" and 4.4" plates to hang at 200 meters. Currently the smallest thing I have to hang is a 6" circle.

That has been my 2 cents.

Need some advice. I’d like to keep using my Caldwell bipod (for swivel studs) for my Savage Mark II TR, but attaching/detaching is a giant PITA.

Thoughts on mounting a Swiss ARCA rail to the wood forend? An 8” rail sticking out 2” from the end of the stock would be awesome. Does anyone have experience with this?

A Picatinny rail is another option, better than the studs but not as handy as the ARCA.

Recommendations for the rail and bipod adapter?

Thanks in advance.

To all the happy Kaleo customers getting their brand new 22LR:

Anyone feel like selling me single boxes of the Lapua and SK and whatever y'all are picking up. I'll come to you and pay cash.

I am guessing at least a few here are as well in order to keep this valuable pipeline operating. 

100%. A thread on here to share tips on which sites have what available and find partners to split cases should generate a big order.

Seeing what others have is always a factor, especially if the initial experience with them is positive.

100%. That's how I wound up with my Savage, a few months to play with one. I believe I've sold at least one Apachee Trigger by letting others take a few shots. And I know I've saved one shooter a bunch of cash when he took a few shots with my brand new Vortex Diamondback Tactical and changed his plans.

So much fun. 22 Fevah!

Here comes a whole new can of worms!

So far I've run a bore snake (run wet with cleaner then again with whatever's left) every 500 or so rounds. Seems to work well. I think currently I've put 1000 rounds through with no bore cleaning. The bolt face and where it locks up (breech?) and bolt body get cleaned more often.
