I am surprised at how many Lefties have rifles and are wanting more. I'm interested if anyone snagged a lefty Bergara yet?

I should NOT be surprised at how much quality .22 cost. I am rather lucky I guess in that my TactiCool shoots the Norma TAC-22 very very well. It's $9.99 a box, but at least is seems available on the shelf almost everywhere now.
Hi, I'm also interested, has anyone picked up a lefty Bergara B-14r yet?

Have the prices on the 457 gone up? I wanted a 457 precision varmint trainer with the manners stock. They were 1200.00 all day long a year ago, looks like 1700+ now.

Does anybody know a place that has them for a decent price?

Here is my scout that I put in a Boyd's stock to be able to switch back and forth between boys and adults.

The aftermarket aperture and the factory front blade are great.

Um, wow... That's a lot of money. You could probably buy a used 457, Lilja barrel, and bravo stock for less than that. That's the direction I'd recommend.

Had to take the NXS 3-15 off because the parallax doesn’t focus close enough. Back to the SWFA 10x.

Some 5 round groups at 25 yards. Shooting CCI SV over a pack and off a bipod.

Threw the 457 into a Bravo.

Still waiting on extended mag release, arca rail and mdt grnd pod. Haven't done extended ammo testing yet. Here's some 50yd groups with Aguila Std which has historically shot a tiny bit better than CCI Std for me. Hashed out shots were zeroing. Unsupressed.

Groups definitely opened up and threw some random fliers with the sparrow. Gonna start testing with some shims along with more ammo along with some action screw torque testing.
