    Long slow roast of the back legs comes up very tasty. No fat on them, so you just have to make sure they don't dry out.

    Where do you normally shoot?
    I used to do loads of Varminting in the UK and pretty keen to do more in NZ.

    Those T-bolts look like a sweet action, how is the straight pull in real-world use?

    Hey GravelBen,yeah the straight pull is sweet ,they take a little getting used to, there's initially an urge to cycle and push up and down as you would on a normal bolt ,but once you get used to straight back and straight forward there great and very fast to cycle.

    Hi All,
    Kimber 84M Varmint Rifle in .204 Ruger – it was my walking varminter until I put the stainless MAE suppressor on it and the bipod.
    Gary McColl also did a fab trigger job on it. It has an A-grade walnut stock, glass bedded satin finished stainless steel barrel with a twist rate of 1: 12.
    Zeiss Conquest 6.5-20x50 Varmint Riflescope. The trigger job was the best thing I did for the rig - breaks like glass!

    Nice rifle. How do you get it to stand by itself on that mono pod???

    LOL. I only noticed that when I posted the photo. I don't think the mono pod will be a big hit!
    Currently working on a Sauer .223 for walking. Maybe a carbon graphite can - advice ??

    Here is my sons new varminter - my trusty Ruger 77/17HMR also suppressed by MAE ... trigger too !
    I've shot this more than any other firearm I own ... even more than the 10/22.

    The rifle shoots better with the stainless can (weight and harmonics) and I shoot it better with the trigger job! After this result - I sent all my triggers in for a nip and tuck !!
