I am looking into a 223, but not necessarily a military-style one, preferable a bolt action. Anyway, Savage uses 1 in 10" which is a nice all around stabilizer for various bullet weights.Anyone know about CZ?thanks,Carl

    Don't know Chuck I'm getting 3in groups off-hand (in my CZ) with both factory and homerolled ammo, and thats in 416 Rigby, can't tell you what it does off the bench (hurts to much).Now my -06 won't shoot a lot of loads within 1 1/2, but it puts 5 shots under a dime with the one load it does likes. Some rifles are fussy like that.Carl: CZ-USA has a toll free # call them up and ask about the twist rate 1-800-955-4486 they are very helpfull[This message has been edited by Tailgunner1954 (edited 03-12-2002).]
