Thread: The new lithgow

Hows it going beetroot.
I just wonder if ya think I bought one just to say I had one.
Funnily enough I own two of the most accurrate 22's with out going to the extreme of the extremely high end.
I have the 455 and the savage accutrigger wood blued which is an amazingly accurrate rifle for the price.
I shot the lithgow this weekend and I reckin that it is showing consistently tighter grouping than my other two.
When lithgow have spent millions on cnc equipment I doubt that they are interested in producing a sub standard product
Correct me if I am wrong but I believe you dont own a tikka plastic fantastic ?

Sorry if you thought I was saying your rifle was bad, I was more replying to the other folks posts on would you spend that much on a 22.
I have no doubt it is a fine rifle, and I'm glad to hear it shoots well. Just I usually tend to research a lot before I buy something, so buying a brand new product would put me off a bit.

Yes I do own a Plastic fantastic Tikka and love it, plastic rifles don't turn me away, just I really like the look of a nice blued wooden rifle also.

You should do proper write up on the rifle and the accuracy you get from it.
A comparison to you CZ 455 would be good too.
I'd certainly be interested in the results.

Had my Lithgow at the range today for Debs to use after the 6mm Saum recoiled too much..

The look on her face when she pulled the trigger with the ASE suppressor on it, "Is that it" "boring not enough recoil"..... can't win aye...

I got her on the 223 AR, the mag loading was "interesting" to say the least.

Funny how the mag loading & shots fired got quicker & quicker, happy camper

I grabbed the Lithgow & shot a group at 100 with the VX1, 3-9x40 on it, couldn't believe the group & no I couldn't duplicate it....



Very happy with it

That is awesome shooting for a 22.
Bravo
