Re: "Tiger" M98 rifle - need suggestions

G'Day Fella's,

Thats the one NitroX!

I have a 1970 vintage ZKK 600 (Monte-Carlo stock version), in .338-O6, and it is a great set up.
The reason I suggested 1970 and before is, I have seen a few after this date, and they are as rough as!
FYI, the Soviets invaded the Czech Republic (or was it already Czechoslovakia, before the invasion?) in 1968.
The quality and finish of most of there firearms, went to the dogs after 1970ish.

The original 7x57 Brno barrel of this rifle was re-bored to .338" by (whats his name ? in Hahndorf, Sth Aust) and then re-chambered to .338-06 and screwed back in, by B H-C.
I have adjusted the Ghost Ring Peep (it is adjustable for both Windage and Elevation), for Hornady 250grn RN and the original iron rear sight, for Hornady 200grn Spire Pts. This took a bit of "Regulating" (via reloading) but is now reliably consistent.

FYI, with 250grn loads, the .338-06, is about 200ish fps, behind my .338 Win Mag (10 feet from the muzzle).

Hope that helps

Doh!
Homer
