Moorlander Posted June 27, 2019 Report Share Posted June 27, 2019 Bolt action CZ .22LR will do the job to a high standard , if you want the best go for Anschutz . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popsbengo Posted June 27, 2019 Report Share Posted June 27, 2019 as above, CZ455 thumbhole is excellent value and accurate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephentri Posted June 27, 2019 Report Share Posted June 27, 2019 Cz have had one for years , good rifle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Hancock Posted June 27, 2019 Report Share Posted June 27, 2019 I have a CZ. It is stunning and honestly the bolt and action is better than my last Anschutz. If looking at new, then the new Tikka at £450 is one hell of a great rifle. Other than that look at Gun trader. .22's are ten a penny.

Paul Cat Posted July 6, 2020 Report Share Posted July 6, 2020 I'll echo the CZ recommendations. You can a used one for circa £200 and if you miss, throw the gun at the rabbit then pick it up and carry on. I imagine mine has lived in at least five farm kitchens over its lifetime and is still going strong. I'll sell it at some point but only to buy a newer one.

gunnery Posted July 6, 2020 Report Share Posted July 6, 2020 as Northern farmer said nothing at all wrong with CZ after a bit of work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snaggletooth Posted July 6, 2020 Report Share Posted July 6, 2020 CZ aren't the slickest, but they're accurate and reliable..... just what you want from a vermin gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aggy Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 Not seen much outshoot the cz for the money ,my priority would be good glass , can’t see it can’t hit it good ammo that your gun likes practice practice practice then the gun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to put .22 CCI 'Quiet" through mine (@740 fps) and with a SAK moddy it was deathly silent, but accurate. I could put 10 shots through a 10p piece circle at 45 yds. Then I sold it...Doh!
