    might build up a few varmint rounds, and see how it performs, on the local snowshoe hare's, and coyotes.
    Ive got a couple Sako PPC and was going to rebarrel to a faster twist as the 1-14 on a 6ppc limits the hunting bullets somewhat.
    we shall see how this little CZ goes first.
    Nice, what bullet will you look to run for varmints? Ive only run 123's in my 6.5G thus far, only shot deer so far, but having a crack at varmints with it with lighter pills going a bit quicker could be fun too.

    Am looking at the 95 v-max. But already a serious shortage of reloading components, due to panic buying in USA and Canada, am yet to find any, got a 150, 100g ballistic tips, kinda expensive for shooting small game, and a 100 Serria 107 gr TMK
    should zip along with 24" tube, quick loadwith 3031 looks very good, as does initial testing.
    I've been using my Sako 6Ppc for a predator, rifle, I've called in a wolf a few times now, and it's a bit light, so have passed on the shot,
