    Name: uploadfromtaptalk1411027895461.jpg Views: 977 Size: 49.7 KB
    just got my hot little hands on this baby!
    Just bolted a bushy ar223 4.5x18 scope on with a set of sunoptics steel quick detachs.
    First up impression is very good with good finishing and a nicely ceracoated
    Finish on a steyr type barrel finish.
    I wilk get the lighter trigger spring but other than that more than happy!

    Just had a play with my Lithgow up the range.

    How does yours feed the bullets into the chamber Andy ?

    My one looks like they start to go in on an angle then the rim pops up into the bolt as it straightens out, looks like it might be shaving a bit off the bullet, not ?
    Contact me for reloading components, brass, projectiles, powder, primers, etc

    They look very nice , price is a bit steep , at 1200 from reloaders , thats dearer than a CZ .

    And if its painted ? , why is it silver , is it trying to look like SS ?

    The Lithgow Small Arms Factory is a worthwhile visit.

    It looks nice but really, $1200 is far too steep for a 22rimfire. Doesn't it use CZ magazines? Might as well buy a CZ 22lr and spend the spare money on a decent scope.
    How many here are willing to spend that sort of a money on a 22?
