I bought this rifle for $125 in '05. This was the first time that I fired it. I handloaded the ammunition myself using FNM cases, Hornady 150gr FMJ bullets, and Hodgdon 4895 powder. To my pleasant surprise, the rifle was already sighted in.
I liked my fixed stock VZ58 so much that I got a folder. This was my first time shooting it. It was accurate and 100% reliable. My only gripe, if I had to have one, is that the magazines are a little difficult to remove.
