Getting ready for sillouette in 17
I did win the NRA AAA national championship this year in smallbore

I dunno how anyone could look at that ant NOT be a .22 lover. Beautiful!

TejasJuan ... Just wow

Brno Model 1's make a nice basis for a custom, I had one for a while that I was considering making into a custom sporter.

I completely understand. In spades as a matter of fact

Beautiful BRNO. While I'm happy as can be with my BRNO #2, I do find the stamped trigger guard detracts a bit. Where did y'all find the bottom metal on that #1? Shop built?

Here is a pair of rimfire sporters that I put together in the last two years. These are 17 HMR rather than .22's. I like rimfires because you actually get to shoot them... a lot if you want to. I use mine (the top one.) for informal benchrest matches, egg shoots, hunting and my wife uses it for squirrel control.

The making of both guns is documented in the custom rifles forum on AR.

John's gun was the inspiration for mine. When I first saw it I had to have one.

gnoahhh,
Some of the sponsors on this site make machined bottom metal for the CZ rifles. Check the hole spacing to determine if they will work.

man do i have stock envy after seeing all these custom sporters in this thread.

texasjohn;
Good evening to you sir and thanks for sharing the photos of that stunning Brno with us. I'd say it's about perfect in every respect.

Many years back my good wife gave me a 1958 No 5 for my birthday and somehow I never warmed up to the original stock.

One winter I decided to go through the black walnut boards in the shop and make one up.

Here's what I ended up with.



It's had about a half dozen different scopes on it since the photo - currently running a steel El Paso Weaver 4x that works okay, but looks right to my eye on it.

Thanks again to you and all the rest who've posted their customized rimfires here.

All the best to you all as we head into winter.

Dick, for an old man, you do pretty good work. They both look great.
