The stock mod is still a work in progress

[tahoe2]

I would have to say, that your CZ really appreciates everything you've done by those tight little groups it gives you ! Nice job !! and nice shootin too !!

[mshootnit]

interesting photo journal.

[armoredman]

Neat! My son loves his 452 Scout, but he's not shot it THAT far! Keep it up!

[Clayne_b]

Its been out to 600 but i have no proof yet, I will have to get it on video...

[Clayne_b]

[CZguy]

That rifle just can't sit still.

[red rick]

That thing has been through hell, but it sure shoots good.

[Clayne_b]

it is well loved

[berettaprofessor]

You painted it? Drilled it? Cut off the stock? Where's the love?

[Clayne_b]

Right here

Here is a 5 shot 25 yard group I shot yesterday, prone with bipod and rear bag

[rodensouth]

Man that little CZ is a shooter! I can see why it was a great candidate for your long range experimentation.

Update on the CZ

It Got a new Stock

[TurtlePhish]

That new stock makes for one different-looking CZ! The barrel barely makes it past the scope and fore-end!

[armoredman]

Wow. How does it shoot at distance, 100/200 yards?

[Clayne_b]

I have only fired 10 rounds threw it since i dropped it in this stock. and 300 yards was not a problem

[proven]

nice work, man, and thanks for the photo diary. i've been meaning to set up a .22 for long range. let us know how the new stock compares to the old. it seems like the old wasn't holding it back much if at all.

[ColtPythonElite]

That new stock is a huge improvement over some of the later mods you did.

[Clayne_b]

What a big surprise it was to open my birthday present from my wife! It was a STOCK from Denny!!! I had mentioned it to her months back that i wanted one.. how did she contact or even know of Denny? She went to my good friend and neighbor/shooting buddy. and asked him if he knew anything of it. I had sent him an email/forward of the parts and stuff that Denny sells a while back. So he contacted him. And made it happen... What a big smile on my face i had when i opened it!!!

[Clayne_b]

I have been neglecting updating the life story of the CZ scout. so here it is

1. Did a Yo Dave trigger kit. set at 5-6 oz.

2. Did a quick bedding job

http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii294/Clayne_b/0621121356.jpg

Every thing seems to be paying off. I took 1st place in the last match.

Now i just need to get out and try some long range shooting again!!
