OK the .222 plastic Baikal arrived and its very accurate and nice to shoot.
It took about an hours work for me to polish the trigger and hammer with a square fine oilstone from George Henrys and a final polish with 1200 grit wet and dry. I put a strip of 6mm thick rubber in the bottom of these plastic stocks barrel channel, this seems to be the best way to bed them.
It shoots really well despite the currently fitted Bushnell Banner 4 x 32 shotgun scope with about 2 MOA crosshairs, it shoots about 1 MOA or 29mm at 100metres. the little .222 cartridge full of AR2206H doesn't heat up the light barrel like my .308 Baikal does so there is no sign of the generally typical single shot rifle vertical stringing after several shots.
This one is a keeper too.
Cheers Peter
