    Does anyone here have any practical experience with the Weihrauch 66J in .22lr? Saw one on a shelf recently and like it - good trigger, unusual stock (that fits me), heavy barrel already threaded and really nice bluing. It looks great but how do they shoot? Better than CZ?
    These guns are sold as a Krico in the US.

    A fellow club member here in UK has one sold as a Krico - it is a very fine shooter and extremely well-made. Just don't lose the magazine. A five shot magazine for my Krico 650SS [in .308, I have to admit] was costed at 156euro three years ago.

    I passed on that one, and make do with the three-shot mag that came with it.

    Spare parts for Kricos are also ferociously priced - as are accessories. The Apel 30mm extended rings for mine cost over 300euros ten years ago.
