I have a 14 year old nephew who has lately made me very proud to be associated with him,,,
I still can't believe he's turning out okay being raised by a (sob) musician.
Anyways the kid is in the Civil Air Patrol,,,
Last summer passed the basic rifle course at a CAP camp.
I think this summer I want to buy him an heirloom quality bolt-action 22 rifle,,,
I definitely want it to have iron sights so he can learn to shoot properly,,,
He can scope it later if he wants to but it's iron sights to start.
I've been looking at the CZ-USA website,,,
Two of their rifles have really caught my eye.
The 455 LUX.
The 455 FS.
If their rimfire rifles are as high quality as my CZ pistols I will be happy,,,
My real question is about the mannlicher stock.
Does the full length stock have a negative affect on the accuracy of the rifle?
It surely affects the aesthetics for me,,,
I think mannlicher stocks are the height of elegance.
And before anyone accuses me of this,,,
Yes, I am probably buying him the rifle I would have loved at his age.
I will appreciate your insights on this topic.
