Unruely, you definitely have a problem here! You probably should PM Greener; I think he has some discount coupons for some kind of 12 step program for those that are fixated on rimfire rifles!

Nice rifles, by the way. Next, you need to save your money and buy a CZ 452 American so you can shoot some really small groups!

Come to think of it, it may be Toyfj40 that has the coupons!

You mean something like these??
452 Varmint in 22lr and one in 17HMR:

This is a 10 shot group at 35yds with the Blue 10/22:

It will out shoot the CZ's..

Coupons!!! "They" have COUPONS!!! ???
No, but the fever continues...
I happened upon a well-used, but nice-functioning Marlin-39a
about a month ago... spent a few hours dis-assembling it and
scrubbing with GunOil and #00 steel wool... and have a nice
"truck gun"... my old-truck ( Toyota FJ40) has a gunrack in the back
and I thought the vintage/used truck would look good with the
"well used" 39a... but the rack has an empty slot... hmmm.
Stopped in a pawn shop today and they had the right companion...
Marlin 30AW (.30-30; budget-model, was 'Glenfield' )... just a little
surface rust in some spots... but not much use... priced-right: $150 !
But... there was a Really-Nice Marlin 336, clean and barely used
without a scratch on it... and the BAD-news is I just barely had enough
money to consider getting both... I asked if there was a Price-break
to get both... she computed a moment and announced a tempting price
that left me enough to ALSO get the really clean .22 Model-60, too !!
So, not only does my old-beat-up 39a now have a BigBrother...
My "gaggle of 60s" grew a notch... and a clean 336, to boot...
Now... where can I find a worn S&W-M&P .38 to compliment this arsenal ?

I won't mention the pristine Winchester-94/30-30 they had priced to sell !!

Those are some mighty fine looking shooting sticks. Does someone have a little fixation with laminated stocks? Those stocks sure do look nice!

I think Unruely qualifies for the extra-value coupon pack. NICE set of rifles.

Need to figure out what to do with the finish.

Well, maybe some CZ's just shoot better than others. Some results from mine at 50 yards off a sand bag:

And here's a pic of that little left-handed honey!

Thought I would add this one, got a flier at 12:00 o clock that messed it up but sill measures about .380 center to center. 10 shots CCI SV at 25 yards indoors of a bag reast with my Ruger 22/45 Great Eight

Well, I'll tell ya, B&OM, that ain't too shabby for a full-fledged member (as I am, also) of the First Tactical Geezer Brigade! Keep up the good work, buddy!

Do you know why when you get up you feel like and old geezer, just look in the mirror and it will ruin your whole day. I usually shave in the dark with my eyes closed to prevent that from happening. Going to try for some better groups this week, was just getting sighted in last week after swapping scopes on a couple of guns.

Will try to shoot some better ones, if I get to the range on Friday.
