trouthunterdj, the rifle on the left in your collection surely does it for me! Am I correct in my thoughts that it is a 22H with ZG-47 safety, and is that factory original or aftermarket bolt and single trigger? The combination seems highly functional AND highly stylish. Congratulations on a very nice collection.

Thanks Guys.

What are the laws about sending a rifle from the States to Canada for work?

Thanks

The 2nd rifle from left, what scope is that and is it adjustable left/right by the dove tail only?
I have a 22 H with a similar looking scope w/ claw mount that is dove tail adjustment only. J

DPhillips - just looking at the photo's Ralf posted on his web-site.
Fine examples of well executed "rifle porn"...the rifles depicted are classics in every way. My best to Ralf! Regards, Homesteader.

Fine looking rifles; that 22F in 7X57 is a Walter Mitty fantasy of mine. Can't think of anything with more restrained elegance and class! Clint

Hello, Bro can you tell me where can I find Original mounts for Brno 8x57 Double Trigger Rifle. Also if original mounts are hard to get then what mounts can I use. I am having a very hard time finding mounts for my rifle. Please let me know. Thank you.

I have to say, I really like your "half stocked" rifle...

The original Brno skeleton mounts are like gemstones, they can be found in odd places but it is difficult to predict where. I have used Talley QD mounts and the non- QD versions with good success. they are the same mounts as for the newer CZ 550 series.

You guys seem to dislike the original BRNO Safeties on the 22/21. If any of you would like to sell I'd be interested.

The latest addition to my BRNO collection. A BRNO ZKW-465 in .22 Hornet. I've been wanting one of these for a very long time!

Congratulations! I almost brought a ZKW-465 home from the Saskatoon gun show a couple weeks ago. They are lovely rifles. It was in excellent condition and he wanted $900 for it. It was worth it. I'd just shoot my Anschutz instead though, so I left it for another enthusiast.

Hope you enjoy it! If you can find some of the Sierra .223" diameter bullets for yours give them a try, I believe the 465's were made with the slightly smaller European bore size, but can use .224" too.

I used my 21H 8x57IS last month to shoot a spike bull elk. Running shot at about 100 yds, broke its neck. I love the way that old rifle handles like a good bird gun.

It looks like you put your BRNO to very good use. I need to make it a point to use one this deer season. Would be much more fun to have elk on the menu though...

I thought I'd add to this old post that I started, - a few days ago I took an orphan calf elk with my Brno 22F 7x57. Some ancient Norma factory loads still shot well, and one 175gr. RN to the shoulder dropped the little one in her tracks at about 80 yds. I'm looking forward to some good eating!
