Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Rimfires Steyr Zephyr II?

I have been a huge fan of CZ rimfires for years. I own more than a few 452s and have always thought they were a fantastic rifle. They were my go to for years for small game. While someday I hoped to get into Coopers, Kimbers, etc. I was extremely pleased with them.

…then I came across the Zephyr IIs. It started with handling a .22LR at an LGS, to buying my first (a threaded .22WMR) secondhand from someone. It took off from there. I’m looking for one more - a threaded .22LR. I have hopes of having it and one of the full stock .22LRs relined to 17HM2 someday.

They are incredible little rifles - in fit, finish, and function. I thoroughly enjoy each of them and they have quickly become my go to for carrying through the woods. They handle very well and accuracy is great across the board!

Top to Bottom, threaded then full stock: (2) .22WMRs, (2) .17HMRs, and (2) .22 LRs.




Another FS in 22LR and the 25” 22LR.


^^ Both of these came from Elk County Ammo and Arms that someone linked above. I frequently hunt and fish not far from the physical store and swing in on occasion. They let me go open 10 boxes to find the FS model you see above. The 25” is 1 of 130 made by Steyr as an experiment.
