My CZ match rifle project is completed
My project CZ 452 Ultra Match rifle is done. My son will use the rifle in 3P smallbore this coming season. :)

That is a Klinsky stock. Here's their website: http://www.klinsky.cz/stranky/301.phppcw wrote:Tell us about it! Where is the stock from? How much cash did you have to lay out? Sure is purdy!
There's a fellow on rimfirecentral.com in the CZ/Brno forums, brnomann is his username, who may be able to get you one. A great guy to deal with, BTW.
I have a Brno Model 4 Match in the same stock. Works well, at least for prone.

For 3P, my son left hand is at the front part of the cutaway, just right behind the rail.WarWagon wrote:Great looking rifle! My only concerns for 3P use would be the short handrail, but if he's got long arms, it should be doable.
I haven't tried the rifle with the sling attached, in positions yet. The handstop and sling adapter will not arrive until Thursday.
From off hand, the rifle slingtly front heavy due to long barrel 28.5". Easy to aim and feels good in hands. Total weight is around 8.5lbs.
Hope the weather is good this weekend. Stay tuned for range report. :)

Price?
What's the price in USD? Are they hard to find in the USA? The adjustments don't look to be very rapid, how long does it take to go from Prone to Standing and Standing to Kneeling?
Thanks,
Roy

Re: Price?
Total would be around ~$800. That includes 452 Ultra Lux rifle, Klinsky match stock, Brno match sights and sunshade, Anschutz adjustable iris and eye shade.GCSInc wrote:What's the price in USD?

There are a lot of thread about the stock in rimfirecentral, this is one of them. http://www.rimfirecentral.com/forums/sh ... nsky+stock
If you need to adjust only butt stock between positions, it would take around 30 seconds to make the adjustment.
My son with the rifle, and he said on the first day with the rifle, "Dad, I love this CZ!!!".
It's not Anschutz, but it's fun to shoot, accurate and at a reasonable price. :)

Thanks for the suggest.bugman1955 wrote:Great looking rifle. My only suggestion is do not use the rubber eye cup. If it get's jarred in any way your shooting will suffer.
I actually found that the sunshade, in front of the rear sight, was misaligned. We took it off, the rifle aim better and the groups were much tighter now. :)

It's a great looking rifle, but I think a few ergonomic improvements might help.
In particular, the underside of the stock from the trigger guard to the tip of the foreend should be straight, rather than having that major cutout for the magazine. This will allow the shooter to put the hand wherever he desires for proper fit. As it is, it looks like he's using that curve effectively as a handstop, but that's not necessarily what his hand wants to be. Even if it wants to be there now, as the kid grows he'll want to gradually move the hand forward, and the stock doesn't permit that.
The foreend should be narrower and closer to the barrel axis. The smaller the distance between the hand and the barrel, the less the muzzle jumps upward in recoil.

I agree about the underside. i wish it was straighten all the way to the trigger guard. It was the location of the action/barrel bolts the prevent that.
So far, it was a fun to shoot and pretty accurate. Excellent as a training and beginning target rifle. :)
