However one of our biggest tasks over the festive season will be to post some exciting news! Oh yes, we have a shipment due from the USA in the New Year and this includes a number of new parts and products which we will reveal soon so please check back on our website over the forthcoming holidays to see more details on one particular and exciting new development. Spoiler alert …. if you are into rimfire shooting then you MIGHT, just MIGHT be in for one or two surprises!
CZ 457 SCOPE RAIL
We are pleased to add another scope base to our range offered for the CZ rimfire rifles. This one fits the latest CZ457 modelCZ452/455 SPRING KITS
Without a doubt this little kit has been the most successful product we have ever come up with over the past 37 years! Not too surprising considering the immense popularity of these rifles which in their turn are probably the UK’s top selling rimfire rifle. Over 8,000 of our spring kits have been sold but sadly we will not be offering them in the future. It is too late in our career to invest in a further large quantity of the component parts of the kit especially the small brass tubes which need to be manufactured to very fine tolerances. However all is not lost as we do still have a very small quantity of two of the springs. As we are receiving many enquiries for the kit we felt at least we can still offer these two springs without the brass tubes which were seldom needed in the later Model 455 rifles but were often advisable in the Model 452. So we are now offering the two springs for £10 plus £5 carriage if required. Please call us on 01226 756332 or e-mail us at enquiries@rimfiremagic.co.uk if you wish to order or simply ask a question. We have now added this item on the CZ page of our website so you may also order directly online too!
REACH FOR THE SUMMIT!
Brought to you in association with our colleagues at Volquartsen Firearms we are delighted to bring you news of our latest rimfire rifle …… the Summit .22lr is a straight pull bolt action rimfire rifle with a toggle joint action based on the action used successfully in many of the top rifles used in the discipline of Biathlon shooting, a novel event involving a mixture of skiing and shooting. Probably the most commonly used rifle for this branch of the shooting sports is the Anschutz biathlon rifle which uses a similar side operated straight pull Fortner action. The Summit concept uses a similar style of action but its greatest innovation from our point of view is that Volquartsen’s action is designed around the established Ruger® 10/22® footprint and will accept almost any Ruger® 10/22® barrel, trigger unit and stock. What is there not to like here! We believe this new rifle will in time become as popular with UK shooters as our well established Rimfire Magic semi-auto rifles.
This allows us to offer a range of rifles adaptable to many styles of shooting including a sporting rifle which may be operated quickly and quietly or target grade rifle for use in competition shooting where the use of a semi-automatic rifle may not be desired. With a sound moderator fitted you can have a sporting rifle with an action which may be operated with a finger and thumb or in the case of some practised shooters a single digit may be used to cycle the action. Naturally with a closed action this leads to an accurate rifle which is much quieter than a semi auto rifle.
From a target shooters perspective we can offer a lightweight, accurate rifle suitable for many disciplines conducted at a more leisurely pace or alternatively with the use of a longer traditional heavy steel barrel you have a heavier and more stable platform for NRL22 competition or the latest long range precision rimfire shooting. One of the interesting features of the Summit system is that the headspace may be easily established for your specific ammunition choice if you have a particular favourite ammunition you like to use, particularly in long range shooting. An additional feature is the integral picatinny scope base which is machined into the receiver incorporates a cant of 20MOA allowing the shooter more opportunity to reach out and zero the scope at longer distances.
Naturally we will be happy to quote for any reasonable specification you may require but our “standard” specification as seen in the photo immediately below consists of the Summit action with a Volquartsen TG2000 trigger unit with a trigger pull of around 1.75 lbs and a Volquartsen 16″ carbon fibre barrel with a 1/2 x 20 UNF thread at the muzzle. This is installed in a Magpul X-22 Hunter stock. The stock is available in a choice of black, flat dark earth or olive drab green. However as mentioned before don’t forget the Summit action should accept almost any Ruger® 10/22® barrel, trigger unit and stock. This may possibly make the Summit one of the most versatile bolt action rimfire rifles on the market today! The price for the standard rifle shown immediately below is £1,250 If you wish to see a Summit for yourself why not call in and take a “peak” at one!
In addition to the carbon fibre barrels we also have in stock a number of an alternative top class rimfire barrels from the highly respected company run by Dan Lilja in the USA. These are .920″ diameter heavy plain stainless steel barrels which we have used in the past to build our top of the range Ruger 77/22 and CZ455 rifles. Normally offered at a length of 21″ we also offer these fine barrels in shorter lengths eg. 16″ and 18″ with either a plain target crown or with a threaded muzzle at 1/2 x 20 UNF. All the stocks offered with our Rimfire Magic rifles are of course also suitable for the Summit rifles including Boyds Evolution and At-One stocks, Hogue thumbhole, Magpul X-22. We have also just acquired some more of the excellent (but often difficult to find) MDT ORYX chassis systems as shown in the other Summit photograph above. With the choices of parts available we are confident we can build you a rifle to suit your particular requirements so please don’t hesitate to contact us for any further information or to ask any questions you may have concerning our new range of Summit rifles.
RIMFIRE MAGIC RIFLES
Meanwhile we had a pleasant surprise a few months ago when a caller at the shop showed us a video on YouTube which had only been posted the day before and had already received over 1,000 hits (plus one from us later that day!) We knew nothing whatsoever about this review and we have no connection with the reviewer who in turn it appears was offered the rifle to review by a customer. The rifle itself was produced back in 2017 We thought you may like to see this ….
