Question for those who have one. I noticed that the ball on the end of the bolt handle has movement (it appears to be threaded on there). Locktite it? Just wondering if anyone else experienced this...mb

Haven't had an issue with mine. Love the rifle and love the caliber.

Yes, it's threaded. I lost mine on a moose hunt. Cz 9.3x62 kevlar carbine. Vibrations from boat motor loosened it, lost it in a muskeg swamp.

CZ sent me a new bolt knob free of charge.

That probably didn't help you on the moose hunt.

OP, although not nearly the same quality or size rifle, my Savage 93 .22lr had the same issue. I just used some nail polish and screwed it back on. Blue Loktite should do the trick.
