Son of a #####, there are more nice 7X57 's around on this thread than I ever imagined. No wonder they never come up for sale in the EE, they all in people's gun safes or being used to kill sheep....nice one Noel.
I think it is time for me to get another one of those

Brno 22F 7x57 with Zeiss Jena 4x.
That scope tops the BRNO off perfectly. They look like they were made for each other. Beauty.

Thanks.
I got mine from here 5 years ago!
Better be quick if you see one in the EE. Unless grossly overpriced the 7's go in mere minutes it seems.Brno 22F 7x57 with Zeiss Jena 4x.
Mike,
Is that a safety on your early ZG47 that rests along the tang?
Never seen one of those before. Those transition guns are real rare.
Brno transition
Noel: Mike's in Edmonchuk at staff meetings so he may not see this for a while. I hadn't seen those variations either until he got this one. If I recall correctly that side button that looks like a safety is actually to de-#### the set trigger should you elect not to shoot. Also the later round knob bolt handle appears to be original as well. That little full stock is a shooter and I don't think he spent a lot of time working up loads to find out..

Hey Dennis!
Guess the boy has to make money to fund his addiction!
I have since lost the link regarding the transition rifles but they had a couple different variations. Some had a round bolt handle like Mike's but the more common ZG47 style pivot safety. Looks like Mike's is the 21H style which I found easier to operate. As to shooting mine was not bad with most loads but with the 154's boy does it smarten up in a hurry!

Yes it is a decocker, releases by pulling the main trigger, there are a few pics on the CZ forum with the same bolt and decock feature. I am almost ashamed to say I have only fired 5 rnds out of that rifle, the 3 in the target to check site in, and 2 for the deer. Ammo was cheap Federal Hi-shok that I bought to get some brass.

Also for submission, my Brno ZKK-602 in 375 H&H. Its posted elsewhere on gunnutz, but I can't resist posting it when I get a chance, I think its elegant, so here goes:
It now sports a Leupold VXIII 1.5x5x20 as seen in this picture (top rifle)

I see that there are a few of us "kindred souls" that have a love affair with the fullstocks.
