[QUOTE="YZ-80, post: 2928234, member: 109229"] Another vote for the CZ 455. I love mine. I bought it with the 17HMR barrel and then picked up a 22lr threaded barrel from CTD. I put a “Yo Dave” trigger spring in it too. I know the OP says the Cooper Jackson Squirrel rifle is too expensive and I would agree. I had one and it was beautiful and accurate. There was a flaw, however and it ended up being a deal killer. Even when I tried match grade ammo, the bullet would engrave into the lands upon chambering and live rounds would not extract. I did some research on it. This may be anecdotal but what I found out was that the rifle had a “crowded” throat (effectively jammed). Built that way purposely to be more accurate. I talked to a gun smith about it and he said he could go in there and push the lands forward a bit to resolve the problem but could not gaurentee the accuracy. I got sick of having to push the live round out of the rifle with a small wooden dowel every time I would hunt with it. Plus it was a safety issue. I sold it, bought the CZ, a nice optic and the extra barrel. Never looked back. [/QUOTE]
