Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles CZ Brno 22 F

Here is one recently done by James Anderson. Not mine, I wish it was though

I don't know these aren't any more popular than they are. They only cost $167.50

TC, at that price I might be able to stand both of those rifles.
The problem at the time, what was the price of a model 70?

This came up before and someone posted these were actually more than a M70 at the time. Having owned both I would pick the little BRNO in a heartbeat.

I would also but at the time the Model 70 was the competition.
The BRNO's are very nice little rifles.. Just have very few of them, a 21f and 22h. Oh and a pretty nice ZG47. All in 7x57..

FYI
There is a 22f at cabelas in Tualatin Oregon, Its 1500.00 i think chamerd in 8x57.
It has claw mounts but no rings. Might be real spendy to put rings on it...tj3006

Thanks. I noticed that listing. I'm still undecided if I go optic or stay irons.

That Carbine has a high lust factor TC!

Well, I got the Leupold CZ highs and they barely DON'T clear a VX 3 2.5x8. What scopes are small enough to clear the bolt handle?

Using a VX2 2 -7 x 28 here. It just clear the bolt handle. Not a long list of choices.

I love my 7x57 round top 22F. With 175 Partitions I can generally hold 1" groups out to 80 yards or so with the open sights. I sold my 21H for a pristine ZG47 30-06.

Does it have the butterknife bolt handle? What mounts do you have?

Actually the same arrangement you went with on the rings and yes a butter knife handle.

From my post above:

"It's one piece scope mount must be factory and fits on male dovetails built into the receivers front and rear rings. This low mount would only allow the small Leu. VARI-X 3-9 Compact to fit. This is well done machinery."

Perhaps this may help.

Looks like your bolt handle has been modified.

While my 21h is not a primary rifle I got it out to handle and a check of it's last outing at the range shows it put two 162 gr Amax into 2" at a hundred yards then the next two 1" high at 200 yds into a 1/2" 'group'.

Tried an old Weaver K-4 I had. Bingo, fits perfect! More period correct also.

Since I can't seem to find an old euro scope I like the price of, looking to put a Leupold M8 4x28 on my 22f

OP, you're going to like your new rifle. I have three of them, ( bottom to top) a 22F 7x57, and a 21H 7x64 and a 21F 8x57. I used the 8x57 this fall to take a bull elk on the run, really like the way these rifles handle. I have upgraded the safeties on all mine, to a model 70 style. I replaced the double trigger on the 22F and did some other minor upgrades on all three. The are now near perfect artistic hunting rigs.

How did you do the safety modification?
