Never owned a 22 LR bolt action which is strange. I ordered a Steyr Zephyr II from Grab A Gun. Went to pick it up and was pleasantly shocked to see it was a mannlicher which isn’t even list on their website anymore. No complaints from me. Scope is Tract 22 Fire 4-12x40 AO with Warne high rings. Certainly is the prettiest bolt action I own. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2022/10/full-56970-366350-e621a7ae_6a9b_4288_98fd_e17eae10904a.jpeg) ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2022/10/full-56970-366351-70cc0888_fec0_4a97_b6ec_b2cb02d8df50.jpeg)

If the 2nd amendment was written just to include guns for hunting, why is there not an amendment to protect fishing poles?

looking forward to the shooting report
just a FYI - for cheap accurate ammo -try the CCI std Velocity - should tell you accuracy without buying expensive match ammo & finding out which one your gun likes the best

I'll look at the CCI standard. I think I have a box of of Federal Gold and SK match ammo but have a lot on Remington Vipers, yellow jackets, cci stingers and some federal auto match and some Armscor. I'll try to get it to the range Sunday.

if I could find one with such pretty wood, I would be tempted to purchase one. The one I have seen for sale only showed "stock" photo. No photo of actual gun. When I'm shopping wood, no wat I would just flip a coin and "hope" I get lucky. Especially for the price of these.

I don’t even see the Mannlicher stock on the Steyr website anymore. I got it for the price of the regular Zephyr. It as almost $300 less than what they are listed on GunBroker.
