Home Forums Reloading Varmint Rifles CLEAN CASES

The other day I started a thread about using Lyman liquid case cleaner, then with all the clean cases, maybe I should shoot some, so I dug out a CZ 17 that I hadn't shot in 10 years





JB says that a 10 shot group is the test of a rifle, I like to shoot 5 and set the rifle aside and shoot the other 5 later in the day.

I looked in the file and found the rifle likes 26 Gr.of H414 and a 40 V max, Rem, 7 1/2 primer, so I loaded 10 of those. Shot 5 and later shot 5 more at the same aiming point.



This is probably better than I can shoot, so does this prove that washed brass works better than tumbled? Perhaps ..

I remember what 007 said, washed not stirred.

After I got the rifle out I remembered (?) that I had started to build a single shot adapter for it to replace the hanger down mag.



Please excuse my gun smiting skills, I don't have any, this was a prototype to be used as a pattern for a real craftsman.

Simple and it works, I even went so far as to buy a piece of black plastic for the real deal, but that was 10 years ago, this is probably as far as it will go.

It works, therefore YOU WIN.
