Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Rimfires New CZ-455, I'll just yell BANG when I pull the trigger.

I haven't seen any in weeks. I can fin 223 but not 22 LR. Crazy.

I don't have a CZ in 22LR, but Federal Auto Match bulk packed ammo shoots very well in my HB 10/22, often equal to or better than Aguila Golden Eagle match.

BTW, I'm sure glad I bought a chitload of 22LR ammo in the 90's. This ammo craze is just nuts.

I shoot between 6-8k per year, most for plinking 10/22 & 39A. About 1-1.5k in more precise shooting. I have close to 14k, mostly plinking. A brick of Match and Tenex will get me through the year ... I'll survive.

FWIW, don't see myself as a horder. I find stuff on sale and buy a few bricks. Always plenty left when I leave. Actually I haven't bought plinking ammo in over a year. Haven't found any decent sales in that time.

It appears the OP now has ammo and his new rifle. Now we need a range report.

CZ got shipped late, arriving in 2 days. Will post pics then range report. Ya no yelling bang, I got some ammo! Thanks

Glad it's working out for you, and that your CZ proves to be an accurate one. I'd sure like to find a 452 lefty.

I'm sure that this involves the complexities of manufacturing and international trade, but I have to wonder why the Cheskies can produce ordinary sporting rifles offering such consistent accuracy, when accuracy and QC in general, in most non-custom rifles, is such a crap shoot these days?

No kidding. Why is it people don't have a decent supply of 22lr at home? Breaking out a 22 can mean at least 500 rounds being shot if not more. I can't imagine not having several thousand rounds on hand at all times.

Did you not read the thread? The OP states he sold his rimfire 10 years ago and has been rimfire free for that period of time. Why on God's green Earth would someone stockpile 1000's of rounds of ammo for which he doesn't have a firearm to chamber it?

I bought a 455 2 months ago and there was no ammo on the shelves when I bought the stupid rifle. I have not owned a 22 for at least 7-8years. I just purchased 5 years worth of ammo for my rifle not counting the very old ammo I have sitting at home already. I don't buy ammo for rifles and pistols I don't own.

My 452 American is one of the most accurate 22LR rifles I've ever had the pleasure to own,these guns are amazing ,especially as reasonably priced as they are .

Congrats!! I got one coming too!!

WTH are all of you guys finding these CZ's? Been looking for a 512 or 455 for months now but not inclined to pay GB prices.

Much obliged!!!

If'n ya want one, I'd wishlist it at Bud's. Then when you get the email that it's in stock, do not hesitate, buy. That's how I got mine a couple weeks ago.

Thanks. Did so today. :-)
