so i strolled in to a gun shop , was going to grab a high quality jw15 in wood but got told they no longer make them in wood:oh noes:
held a synthetic one felt like i would snap it in half if i closed the bolt to hard
so what do you buy if you want a bolt 22 in wood nowdays??
came across a cz 455 that has two barrels ,one in 22 and one in 17, looked nice anyone used or got one?
yep not long bought one and love it.
its no more accurate than my savage but much nicer build quality.
I have tried the .17 barrel and it seems to be a tack driver but will mainly use the .22.
My boys were dialling up to 200 yds and hitting a 6 inch plate consistentlywith the .22 other day so thats some cheap fun!Quote:

Because with a little bit of work they shoot extremely well from a little shooter you would not be too worried about getting knocked around. I bought one for the girls and it is shooting about 1/2" at 50m. That will mean lots of head shot bunnies for the pot.Quote:

Good on ya for getting it to shoot, I just like nice things so a Norinco will never be an option for me, even the .22 I am going to cut down for my youngster is a Brno model 2 (albeit one that has had a tough life and will be getting a new lease with this project!)
I never buy things considering that I am going to damage them, if they get a few bumps as a matter of use then that adds character! :D
Dad got a .22mag norinco. fucking piece of shit.
My jw shoots ok for what it is. My mates one is absolutely shithouse.
Its the luck of the draw with budget anything not just rifles.

The vast majority of them turn into really good shooters with a barrel chop and re-crown or even just a tidy up. The off centre bore isn't normally a problem either. the main thing being that suppressor threading needs to be on the bore not o/d.
My savage is the wood blue with the accutrigger which is the best factory 22 trigger I have tried.it shoots cci minimag into 1/2 at 50 yds which is the same as the cz.Quote:

The barrel change is a peice of piss and only takes 5 mins.
I highly recommend either rifle

Get a brno model 2 I have two good reliable rifles accurate
As the norinco are are cheap copies from the Chinese not many in the uk
all my norincos shoot great had one dud m305 wasn't cycling but just sent it back and got another.
I was going to get a JW15 for my elder son and i found the action very average to say the least, it felt notchy to use and no doubt would be difficult for the young fella to enjoy.
In the end i got him a Savage Mk2F 22LR with synthetic stock, it was smooth but a little tight when new, now after a few hundred rounds its great, and accurate!
My other younger son has CZ452 with wood stock and that was butter out of the box, nothing but nice nice nice...
if you are on a budget get a Savage or Marlin, if not get a CZ or similar... just my 2 cents., :)
Id have a Norinco .22, problem is I can out shoot the rifle and it's bloody annoying. I've also bought a mod 54 ansultz 1963 mod with the good action, it goes where I want it to!:thumbsup:
I wish I could out shoot the JW15 I got for the kids. This is sighting it in at 50m, three x five shot groups.Quote:

Just wish my shooting was more consistent. See the muffed shot in the last one. :oh noes:
Muffed or rifle? I've had two norincos and shooting subs inside always inaccurate, compared with the Anshultz. Can call a shot with that and it's there, I'm not a great shot,but not bad IMHO, and the norincos are always frustrating, as some ammo can be.
Muffed. They were just quick mag loads to get sighted in and I knew I pulled those shots. Mudgripz was averaging 0.4" groups with it at 50m. This from a $100 second hand rifle.Quote:

The one I have is now 20 yrs old, bought it new for my son, probably fired 200 rounds in its life.
I have a wee Marlin 925 and it is a real tack driver. Chopped it to 14" and suppressed. Fantastic :)
Definately a step up from the JW.
Can't believe you got your mitts on that one.Quote:
