Silhouette tonight went well. Shot 10 rams in a row with Bitter’s CZ 452 Lux, which means another pin! I’m getting my average into the low 30s now on scoped sights with my 10/22. I’ve been shooting Bitter’s CZ in the open sights category, and have actually been doing better with that gun than I do with the Ruger. My average with her CZ isn’t as high yet because I have to shoot one more match to get rid of the first one where I hadn’t zeroed the sights. My scores have been consistently in the low 30s with Bitter’s CZ. I love that rifle. The open sights are very nice, and it just shoots beautifully. I only hope that one day she will get a chance to enjoy it too!
The Ram pin will certainly get a place of honor on my shooting hat. Pictures will be forthcoming.
Reminds me of an episode of the Simpsons in which Homer buys a bowling ball for Marge…
How long before you get one for yourself?
Personally I think the iron sights are so nice on the CZ I wouldn’t put an optic on one.
Then again, I an Iron sight sort of guy….
Why would I need to get one for myself? :) Actually, I have a pretty decent target .22 on order with the CMP… the Kimber Model 82 Government. That will be my open sight silhouette gun. Of course, then I might want to put a scope on Bitter’s rifle and keep using it :)
But Bitter did want a bolt action .22. I didn’t just get it for her because I wanted it.
Yeah, but did you have “Homer” engraved in the stock?
