Default BRNO Lux, .22 Hornet

Doesn't get any better then this, boys...

Predecessor to CZ USA, still a BRNO. In that really old and accurate caliber. The Hornet has such a great story behind it.

Hum... I thought my father was the only one who used pipe to rebuild a wheel barrow! Looks like both it and the rifle could really tell some tales. For the record, I've always thought BRNO to be one of the best in rifles. Never had a .22 Hornet... but often thought about it. Enjoy!

I like the brand myself. I did trade off the third one from the top and replace it with a HS Precision stocked Varmint model a few years ago. My Hornet wears a ancient Weaver K2.5 scope, not much for long range but it worked fine in the woods.

That is a nice rifle Steve. We always find more handguns to get like the newest Friday addition. That one is mine for truck carry. $350 for a LNIB Beretta PX4 .40 and it is mine.

I traded for this CZ #527 American model in .222 Remington this past Saturday.

Neat,...

You and I share a Passion for CZ rifles. I have the Carbine in .223 and it is a amazing gun. Have the composite stock in .204 Ruger. Mine has a brake added to it. Several 452's, all Lux models.

Best rifle for the money....

The .22 Hornet

Even more fun if you have a early one...
