Same here. We shoot ARA matches and I cut off all the unused sighters from match targets left by match shooters.
I knew somebody would do it, more to follow. Good consistent shooting.
I have been waiting to see your Fly Target, did you ever get it to copy?I tried to open the attachment, but it just comes up blank on my ipad. Maybe @amnesia can fix it, like he fixed the blank screen this morning 🧐
Anyway,
I tried 11 different ammo selections through the CZ457 that I pulled out of a plain field stock, and installed into my MTR stock, which was missing the barrelled action it came with, now in a chassis.
Pictures show the rifle and its target. Those flatnose bullets do pretty well. Unfortunately, some Greensboro cops were on the 50 yard bay all day, with lots of 3-round bursts and mag dumps going on. They must get free ammo.
I only had the 25 yard range to test the ammo, so I used my Surefire suppressor for all groups. 10-round groups for all but one RWS Target Rifle group, marked as 5 rounds cause I have no more of it.
Of course, I had to shoot for score on one of my last targets before my HP ink vacuum drained dry.
The Cz cost me just under $600, scope was $500 and the stock was a take-off. Both the rifle and the scope perform way above their price point. I suspect this plain 457 will outshoot its MTR brother, given good ammo. It is much quieter than the MTR
The Surefire cost $500 and was in ATF hell for 1 year.
Wind was negligible, temp was 78F.
Cops were cops, annoying.

He had a bad accident and may be out of shooting action for a few weeks.
Thanks!
I saw on on a YouTube video for sale, with the original wooden box that it came in. I didn't see a price. BUDS Gun Shop. Com.
I find that a lot with a general search. Cabela's used guns often has something, but priced high. Gunbroker has a few at a time with a wide range of prices. Hoping to find one at a show or local shop. Maybe on the gun forum.
And with Iron Sights!
Just want to make you sick----- I bought mine in 1968 from the Navy. I was temporarily stationed in San Juan, Puerto Rico. I was assigned to help in the Armory. I had just got Married and was only making $42.00/ week. I was a 3rd Class Quartermaster and I was working with a 1st Class Gunney. One day he asked me if I wanted to buy any guns. I said yes. He told me they were having a surprise Admiral inspection and they had some rifles that they needed to get rid of.
Same here, it's the tune that never stops.
I did adjust the scope a couple times, but a new barrel takes a little while to become consistent. I was very happy to see the results so far. We are in Alamance county along Rt 54. Cicadas sound like a space ship landing in the background, with waves of maraca's playing.
Umbrella to retrieve targets. I don’t know if it did or not but there was basically zero wind so that was a nice change.Super shooting! Way to wet for me. I like the tent. Apparently the rain had no impact on the accuracy of your bullets. Do you have a dry bag to retrieve the targets?
