@Mac11FA if you ever need any WSM ammo and can't find any let me know. The Walmart by my house ALWAYS has .17 WSM in stock.
Thank you sir. Our WalMart has been carrying as well as Academy. It is no longer Unicorn poop anymore since Hornady and American Eagle stepped up. I had so much I actually helped an ODTer out back when it was scarce and sold it a several $$ below cost since he came to me.

Mac11, you're just a good dude. I don't care what @karlvv says about you. Mainly because I don't care what he says. He can't even spell his own name. Carl. I mean, come on!

Another update folks! Got the trigger gauge in for some actual numbers. The trigger as it came from the factory is sitting at 2lb 12oz. Not bad CZ. Not bad. The trigger is supposed to be adjustable. I'm gonna play with that a little later. IMG_20170318_131150.jpg

Ok, so I had high rings on it because I was afraid the bolt wouldn't clear the eye piece when taking it out. I swapped to medium rings yesterday to get it closer to the bore and it cleared no problem. BUT the Butler Creek flip up cover in the front won't clear the barrel. If I take it off the objective lens alone clears fine. So.... Are high rings gonna take away much accuracy wise? Are there any slimmer flip up scope caps? @cmshoot do you have any words of wisdom. The objective is the parallax adjustment on this scope so it has to have room to turn or I would just shave the one side of the cap.

Here's the medium Rings kind of back lit to better show how little clearance there is. IMG_20170323_045242332_HDR.jpg

Find a set of rings that are slightly higher, made by another company.

What company are the medium rings that you have on there now?

I almost hate to tell you..... Center Point..... They were the best I could find to fit the CZ on such short notice. It doesn't have a Weaver style base, nor is it drilled and tapped. Why, I have no idea. It's an 11mm dovetail. They dropped the ball on that one. I know I can order an adapter. I just ran out of time. We're shooting Saturday.

I'm sure I can find something for you, but not by Saturday. Just throw a towel over the scope when you're not shooting.

I remounted the high rings and leveled it for now. Gotta take care of the glass. It's approximately 1.88" above the bore to center. It'll do for 100 yards I believe. I would like to address it before I go to the CMP. I'd at least like to attempt to take it to 300. We'll see if the 22 can make it with any consistency or not. Might have to settle for 200.

Without an adjustable cheek piece, I'd have gone with the medium rings.
I'm gonna see how it does without an adjustable cheek piece for now. I am thinking about getting one of the Kydex kits though.
We were shooting stock savage fvsr at 200 dinging steel regularly
Awesome. I look forward to shooting this one at distance.
