I have the same rifle also! I topped mine with a Leopold 1.5-5x20 VXII Matte finish. I have killed a few hogs and few deer too! I use Silver Bear 123 gr. SP only! I have never lost any animal I shot with it! The farthest shot was a hog in OK. 125 yards! She went 20 yards and collapsed! I do like the mag conversion, but don't mind the way it is! Enjoy your new rifle, mine has brought me many a day of fun, as I know yours will!

? why?

....You know I didn't like the factory magazine extending so far below the stock, but now after a few years use, I wouldn't want it changed. It provides an ideal carry point for my fingers to curl around and makes speeding down a trail easier with the rifle than were it a flush fit. I do want to send the stock off, or maybe do the job myself, in order to shave it down to a bit more slim cut, fitting the proportions of the little rifle a bit better to my eye. There's enough 'meat' in the factory stock to bring out a lovely little, lighter, stock with an American comb and a snable fore end to compliment it's European heritage. I'll pillar bed it, and seal the floated barrel chanel, and reciever bed with a thin epoxy coat to keep out moisture. This little gun shoots like a target gun, carrying it up a tree is a delight, and it points like your finger, QUICK and ACCURATE! I killed a running buck last week with a perfect lung shot, one I'd not have made with a number of my other rifles!

nephew runs the commie round in an AR. I HATE ballistic tip bullets but have been just totally impressed with them in 30 cal, 125 that he runs in that gun. They hold together like a bullet should. Just an FYI on reloading.

Me, when I end up with one, will be more like a right bullet, light ttsx.... but no flies on the 125 BT... killed a boar over 350 with his AR one morning, 75 ish yard shot right through both shields as he was on the move and couldn't get to the head fast enough... I was amazed that it exited... Boar didn't make 50 yards...

Aren't they great little guns! I bought the CZ 527 and the Ruger Compact Hawkeye in 7.62x39 for the recoil senative kids to shoot. We've managed to help several kids get their first deer with them. I really enjoyed shooting the guns myself, and prefer the CZ because the stock fits me a lot better than the Ruger Compact does. Good luck with that gun, you won't be sorry.
