Going out for a skulk with the 22rf last night, grabbed bolt, bullets, rifle,car keys and off i went double checked I had everything okey dokey off a hunting we shall go. Got to grounds loaded up started skulking, see rabbits take aim pull trigger. CLICK try again CLICK said rifle Bollocks !! says I. Checks magazine OK check ammo, slight strike mark on rim. Then the penny dropped this bolt looks a bit new for the 22, on closer inspection it's only for the .17hmr now did I feel a right plonker

Did the same thing myself ,I now have red tape round one bolt handle and yellow around the other,

this seems to be quite common and I've certainly suffered. The 17 safety wont go forward if fitted with the 22 bolt. simple quick check.

we have all done it!!

forgot to add both cz/brno models. bolts are exactly the same except for the fireing pin spring strength, it cycles round it fires the action but not enough strength to deform the rim on cartridge, bugger

I've got a .22rf and a .17HMR both CZ's only 8 months apart. Put the wrong bolt in the wrong gun and it won't even push fully forward.
