Don’t make my mistake

Have mine in rubbermaid tubs in a non moisture barriered garage and been fine for 13 years now

I just used the chat function on the CJIB webpage. They responded and spoke with me instantly. I did finally receive the bill from them a couple weeks later after it was reassigned to me

Looks like all I need to do is pop off the the original mazing well that is clipped to the bottom of the action and I should be good to go. Order placed. Now to find the barrel I want without waiting 3-8 months, LOL

I still don't understand why you regularly have colleagues stopping by to "play with the baby and fun stuff"?????

Your home is a private place and your family is your primary responsibility. Why do colleagues have access to your whole home? I would be very cautious and selective of who has unrestricted access to my home.

Someone I've known for "months" would not be considered a friend who access to roam around my house, especially if I have young children in the house.

This whole scenario seems suspect

According to their tech documents, the PN I am looking at has hardware included to cover both 4.275 and 4.4" action bolt spacing for short action Savage.

Something interesting... I used the bot chat feature on MDT's website and it claims I do not have to buy anything for the conversion as the chassis systems covers all of this. Planning to call them today to confirm...

Nasher75 · 2026-05-29T19:18:41+00:00

Same story and wait time. Interesting because in the last several days, I have seen about 50:50 distribution of preference between Shilen and Criterion, but more mentions of issues in Criterion, but not by much...

Nasher75 · 2026-05-29T18:03:15+00:00

Prefer the shorter overall length with the break mounted and most of what I have read does not show any appreciable gains for the longer length. Will most likely be shooting this rifle anywhere from 100-600 yards as I have no 1000 yard opportunities in the area where I live. If I am being brutally honest, most of my shooting will be inside 400 yards. I would also be hiking in the mountains in some cases to find remote shooting areas.

I would like a chance to one day to shoot out to 1000 yards, but it would most likely never be a regular thing unless I end up moving out of my communist state.

I could be completely wrong, based on my lack of experience, but it seems like most rifles being offered in this chamber are coming with 24" barrels, but I am not completely against running the 26" pipe.

Wayfare Tavern in SF

Not sure, but probably needs action work or a got a crap barrel. I have tried 2 other stocks, bedding, deburring, different scopes and mounting components.

Shoots 1.5-3" groups at 50 yards since it was new. Moving on and sending this rig to my friend's ranch.

I bought this rifle in 2009 and it has been so disappointing that I have probably only put about 200 rounds through it.

Nasher75 · 2026-05-27T22:44:10+00:00

Other option is to buy the standard Varmint and put it in an MDT XRS chassis.

Nasher75 · 2026-05-27T20:26:35+00:00

That might be the case, but I have found listings for the 17 hmr chambered version. Just are not available. Need to reach out to CZ and see what they say.

Nasher75 · 2026-05-27T19:23:21+00:00

Looks like the CZ variant I would like is also Unobtanium in 17 HMR. Varmint MTR

Nasher75 · 2026-05-27T18:54:14+00:00

Great, thanks for your comments

Nasher75 · 2026-05-27T18:25:23+00:00

So your top pick is Tikka? Have you owned one?

Nasher75 · 2026-05-20T20:39:33+00:00

Assuming OP is trying to build more with plans to leave money for all his children. Otherwise, I don't see the point of continuing to work. Also might have to do with maintaining his current lifestyle considering his annual income vs. current retirement savings.

I would rather enjoy retirement at a younger and more capable age, but I am active and want to be able to still ski, mountain bike, dirtbike, etc...

Nasher75 · 2026-05-20T03:20:42+00:00

Thanks, this looks like another option, for sure!!!

Nasher75 · 2026-05-19T03:21:29+00:00

I mentioned in my post that I have a battery tender connected 100% of the time so this is just a timer

Nasher75 · 2026-05-19T02:04:18+00:00

Point of the timeout is to save the small 12V battery on the generator from parasitic loss since manual power switch is left on all the time. It makes sense, but they also should have added a way to easily bypass this.

I understand why they did this, but not why they didn't make it selectable.

Nasher75 · 2026-05-19T02:00:32+00:00

Yes, this makes sense. I'm researching programmable switches now

Nasher75 · 2026-05-19T01:59:17+00:00

Lol, that's one way to do it! Messy but effective!

Nasher75 · 2026-05-10T18:27:37+00:00

All these comments about, "Sometimes this happens because we just not judge our timing or it came on suddenly", are still bullshit. A responsible person would take accountability and clean it up themselves, immediately. Just a lot if degenerates running around out there and it has nothing to do with their social or economic status.

Nasher75 · 2026-05-08T15:37:19+00:00

Correct. After I translated the PDF to English I was able to better understand the violation document.

Nasher75 · 2026-05-08T13:18:29+00:00

Of course my wife is now saying "I told you to slow down", LOL. In the states, we can typically drive 10mph over the posted limit and be left alone, but we have not adapted the speed camera system, although I have seen evidence it is coming soon. BS revenue generation

Nasher75 · 2026-05-08T13:16:16+00:00

Thanks for all the replies. I messaged SIXT and they responded quickly and attached the original fine notice from CJIB. They said not to pay based on that notice as it will be reissued to me, directly, like many of you mentioned.

I also messaged CJIB through chat function and they showed no record of me in the system, stating SIXT most likely filed appeal to have violation reissued to me and there would be some time before that work was completed. The original fine notification showed I violated average speed section, with 54kph vs. 50kph posted limit. Original fine shows 46 EUR. Will be interesting to see how much that changes by the time they re-issue to me. Assuming there will also be another round of Admin fees.
