Tradex Zastava 6.5x55

[Bowie]

Has anyone put one of the Zastava 6.5x55 rifles Tradex carries through its paces? Fit, finish, accuracy, etc.?

I found it Ok. Its not a Sako and it's not priced like one either. Its going to be used and I won't feel bad about it. I'm not sure of the potential for accuracy yet. So far it didn't like both types of bullets I loaded for it. I'll keep trying, I like a challenge.

I dropped $225 on a sporter M96 from Tradex like this one... http://www.tradeexcanada.com/content/swedish-m96-sporter-65x55-4, there are several to choose from at various prices. Quite affordable IMO. I cleaned it up, and just waiting for a time to get to the range. All my current Swedes are excellent shooters, thus I have no doubt this will too. I have mounted Millet high weaver rings with an old Bushnell 4x scope I have lying around. Anthony's descriptions are spot on for his rifles listed on his site.

Bought the 6.5x55mm full stock. Shoots well. Got it grouping under an inch. The only complaint I would have is the stock finish, needed to be redone.

What does yours like for ammo?

I had one and it was a great rifle, it liked my handloads and like s&b 140gn sp. I only got rid of it because a 6.5x55 I was really wanting dropped into my lap.
