    I was using the TSX. They are very good killers, then I needed to be more tactical and shoot long range and have knobs and dials and stock packs and check rests and big scopes and long bits of stuff and extra weight and other cool stuff that I read about on the internet. The Barnes was not cool out to 1300m.
    I should have stuck with the Barnes.
    Run them fast and don't expect to recover meat from where you point them.

    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    I accept your 0 points and deduct a further 20 as I have taken all that shit off and now have a practical rifle (again).
