![]() ![]() In fact, over time I've noticed that some brands that couldn't shoot a bee in a hive now blast ragged holes, where as others have slipped from their precision throne. I've done some minor work on the headspace on this rifle myself which is an entire other story, but within 500 rounds of cheap federal/cci I've manged to make this rifle shrink its groups dramatically. NORINCO JW 15 22 RIFLE FREEPerfect comb height too for most scope mountings as well.Īlso in regards to the accuracy, once you have a free floating barrel either from your own handiwork or buying and floating Hatcher's stock, the simple matter is to keep shooting it. I've seen a Grade XX one of these before, it's worth nearly double the amount of the rifle! If it's a keeper like mine is, then definitely go for it, Hatcher custom talors these things up a treat, fits like a glove and I really can't find a complaint on the ergonomics. Inletting was a bit of a let down for me however as I'd spent a number of afternoons getting the action to fit straight and flush, but eventually with some work it sorted itself out fine. Also try to clean up the camming surfaces with fine buffing wheels on and auto-sol, never touch with any kind of abrasive paper.Īlso in regards to the stock, my one was a standard grade test stock from Hatcher as I've never bought any of his products before, and mine was only semi-finished as seen in the image on the OP. The entire bolt assembly needs a lot of degreasing and TLC. I'm not kidding, for me it comparable to a very Moist Nugget. Yeah, the bolt is stupid stiff when you first get it. The bolt seemed bloody tight but after reading Heckler303's post it's now 80-90% better Jon79 wrote:what ammo have most found to work best in these? I grabbed one of these for the daughter yesterday and had play around with it last night after we'd finished seemed to spray all over the place at 50m Its worth the 2 greenies and a yellow mate, believe me. Only had one magazine hang-up as well which was my own stupid fault (slammed the rim in and under the follower trying to load it in a hurry in the dark.) They're rugged, reliable and honestly I've never had a single misfire that wasnt due to dodgy ammo. The thing definitely pays itself very quickly! Also managed to knock the cap off a coke bottle placed out at 190M, after a few spotters here and there. I've taken all kinds of things with it from rats, to bunnies, to hares, to wallabies, even the occasional pest bird. On the hunting side of things, it's a great lightweight rifle and when put together with a sling, it'll go with you anywhere. Winchester Z's 28grn (Absolute crap, dont even bother, shoots minute of Kim-Jun) SK (Especially red-box match ammo)) 40grnĮley subsonic 40grn (Best choice hunting round) Here's a list of all the 22's i've used in it so far, from best, to crappiest. Not when it first came out of the box, like a 3 inch group at 40M or so. NORINCO JW 15 22 RIFLE DRIVERNow onto accuracy, I've done some time with it and honestly, it's a tack driver today. I've set mine to roughly 2.5 pound and cleaned up the sear/trigger relation surfaces up with a fine buffing wheel, and autosol on a small earbud. You're also going to need to free float the barrel if you're sticking with the crummy plastic stock, or alternatively you can order a stock from Hatchers Rifle Stocks:Īlso, the trigger is actually fairly workable too, here's a guide on that. The mysterious Chinese packing oil contaminates these things like the plague and is the reason they get complaints on their tightness. Spend some time over here: (mind you, I didnt have a dremel tool, just sat there on the lounge for hours with sandpaper.)Īlso if you're ordering this new/semi new, you're gonna want to disassembly everything and soak it in a heavy degreaser/petrol. NORINCO JW 15 22 RIFLE FULLThere is a youtube tutorial that goes into the full process of cleaning up a CZ which essentially is the same design as the Norinco. ![]() In fact, the entire length of the raceways, the shape of the bolt and especially the camming surfaces are pretty rough. Now as for the rifle itself, the reason you're getting a seemingly direct copy of a Brno Model 1 so cheaply is because that due to the manufacturing capabilities of Norinco, they're not the greatest in terms of fine machining. Not a bad price actually, in fact one of the better cheap. The Nikko Stirling 4x32 was of my own purchase as well, the full rifle was $240. Unfortunately they nicked the rear sight off of it so I couldn't ever use it without a scope unless I wanna try my hand at aligning targets via the barrel length. The owner didn't want it anymore and had barely even used it out of the box. When I first got mine, it was second-hand. ![]()
