I've been looking for one of the Manners stocked CZ Varmint Precision Trainers. Local store got me one today. It followed me home tonight. Plus a brick of CCI Standard Velocity and some Mini-Mags. Now I have to get it threaded, pick a scope and order a bunch of items from Dip. Looking forward to shooting it! Anybody have first hand experience with one? ![[Linked Image]](http://i371.photobucket.com/albums/oo151/Bobcape/9E3BFFFB-4A16-4F26-8830-95673E74CAC0_zpsdn3pf3ab.jpg) Bob
I met a French guy the other day. I asked him "Do you speak German?" He said "No." I said "You're welcome!"

Buy a DIP aluminum mag well as soon as possible. Nice rifle. What glass do you intend to mount on it?

I haven't decided 100% on the glass yet. I'm thinking of an FX3-12x. Then send the scope in for a TMR reticle and maybe replace the windage turret with a standard low profile cap. I don't dial windage and I don't like that windage turret sticking out so much. I've done this on other scopes and like this setup quite a bit. I have an FX 24x with fine crosshair sitting here I'll put on temporarily. I don't want anything too heavy. What glass would you suggest?

And thanks for the suggestion. I just added the aluminum mag well to my order. This is my first CZ. I'm looking forward to finding out what ammo it likes best. I woke up this morning to snow blowing sideways! Not the best conditions for group testing.

CCI SV has proven to be the best price vs accuracy ammo for me. Wolf Match ammo being the best regardless of price. When choosing glass just be mindful of large rear occulars. The CZ has a really high bolt throw.

Please let us know how they shoot! 1. I agree. 2. DIP 3. It is a stock item from CZ. The new ones have the molded in camo Manners stock. Older ones were tan. Retail for $970. I got mine for $815. Check with ShortActionSmoker on here. I think he may be able to help you. Keith, Don't need to sneak up on 'em. This thing is gaurenteed dead-on with zero drop to 1,100 yards. Pretty good for a .22LR! It's their proprietary rifling that makes it so's the bullets don't slow down. You need one. Bad! Bob

Now it just needs to warm up so you can play with the thing.

Here are some quick pictures of an FX-24 in a Leupold Ringmount Rimfire 11mm High set - 54234. The bolt clears with no problem. The bolt did not clear with the medium height rings. I am returning these and am going with the DIP 25MOA extended rail. ![[Linked Image]](http://i371.photobucket.com/albums/oo151/Bobcape/9A4A44D2-0BFD-4CDC-80D3-C630F7DDD820_zpsb4smosjj.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i371.photobucket.com/albums/oo151/Bobcape/6A037703-E47D-4BBE-9425-FAB930F7810C_zpsoff9zfww.jpg) Bob

You should try NRA Silhouette with the new gun.
Much fun.

Very nice. My CZs shoot the CCI SV very well but Wolf MT is the clear winner.
How about thread the barrel and use a Sparrow silencer?

In the interest of full disclosure, my CZ is a 453 American. I used the OEM rings, not certain of height. The OEM rings barely clears the bolt throw and sadly using a 40mm objective scope I have a lot of clearance.
