For your entertainment: Czech dis-mount

[T/C]

Hi all,

Two months ago I came across a good, barely used CZ ZKK 602 in .375 H&H, great price, in a gunshop. Older Meopta fixed magnification glass with military reticle on strange high peep-through mounts (can use open sights thru them).
"Out of an estate, the gentleman did not hunt with it, very little shots made."
Price was REALLY right, bought it.

Went to the range with it for sighting in, and shot it seated from the bench, no hard contact, just hand between forend and bag, and shoulder.
After five shots, the group opened up and I was a little confused. It was kicking uncomfortably due to seated position, and I thought maybe I flinched too much. Took a break, continued shooting, groups worsened. After one pack of ammo, the Czech dis-mount materialised :

At least the gunshop didn't lie, the former owner did not shoot much with this combo

The ZKK now wears a Recknagel-style Rusan mount, and a Zeiss with rail. Hope it stays on

The scope mount that came adrift was not an original setup but was some one-off bastardisation. The ZKK has the dovetails on the front and rear of the action and they provides a very solid arrangement. Typically users will use either the Warne or Alaska arms QD mounts designed for the action, which work perfectly.
