I just put the day scope back on so that I can harvest a few of the pheasants that have been fattening themselves up on my maize and in the apple orchard.
Zeroing was a doddle. Bore sighted on the target at 25 yards and then out to 50 yards (my normal zeroing range because my 4-9x50 Hawke scope has a reticle matched to 40 grain sub sonics and the 50 yards mark is at the centre of the crosshairs)
I was one inch to the right and half an inch low which was easily corrected on the turrets before moving out to shoot a sub two inch group of 10 at 100 yards with bog standard hollow points scoring 89/100. I’m sticking with the lower magnification scope because there is very little parallax error and it’s a little brighter, even though it’s only got an inch diameter tube.

OMG I love my little CZ, it just does everything I ask of it.

Pre covid I was seriously looking into getting my fac. Glad I didn't co terminus going by how long the sgc renewal was.
Really fancy a .22 Hornet.

That’s why they’ve been making them for about 70 years!

When I was looking at getting a FAC it was the first name on the list!

I think if I was to go for a centrefire it would have to be a minimum of either a .223 or 22-250 for foxing and muntjac. I can prove the presence of both on my land so am entitled to apply for the variation.
