Slippery butt

[bandit1250]

This is not about what it sounds like. I went in the woods today with my CZ Lux 22 for squirrel. Every time I was getting comfortable for a shot and using my shooting sticks the butt with that lousy plastic butt plate would start to slid on my shoulder. I thought about cutting the stock and putting a thin Pachmayr rifle pad on but I don't plan on hunting squirrel enough this season to do that right now. My fix may be considered a band-aid for the cure but it works and I can live with it for now. I got a piece of the no skid material that sticks on steps and cut a piece to fit the butt plate and put that on it. No slipping now. Doesn't look to bad for a 3 minute fix.

Works real well on pistol grips also.

Huh, Huh, - he said 'slippery butt' !

[Ojaileveraction]

I would definitely do that!

I don't think it would look good on my brass butt.

Thanks for the tip, Bandit.

Good Idea bandit. But how does that 444 work on squirrels

I've used the 3M stair non-skid tape on my air rifles , 22's and most target guns . It works great

Not sure how the 444 Marlin would work on squirrels but I think I may be slightly under gunned. We have big tough fox squirrels here so I use it mostly on real aggressive chipmunks and use the 300 gr. bullets.

.444 is pretty big caliber for squirrels and chipmunks.
Have eastern gray and fox here. .410 #4 shot works nicely. I leave the chipmunks to the cats.

The 32-20 will do squirrels to deer . Low noise and recoil and super accurate round . If you reload make it a better round . The 327 mag come very near the same round . The 32-20 bottleneck feed better in lever gun then the 327 mag straight wall case .
