Who ever designed that rifle was either pissed out of his brain or really likes ugly
You mean they were drinking Waikato? That would explain many design faults in the world.
Noooooooooooooooooooo such a refined brew as the King of beers would enhance ability Barefoot.Quote:

The bottom of the butt could have finished a bit better. Hope he enjoys it. :thumbsup:
Why oh why do they not use a std double stack mag,eg ar10 or m14?
I bought one but could not stand how far the mag stuck out for only ten rounds,don't get wrong-ten is plenty but it does stick out a long way for a ten shot mag.
Sold it without even blooding it and built up a scout style blr.
Talking to big brother as I write this...he says she might be ugly but she still performs:D...no complaints although he has smoothed the action down and modified the stock ever so slightly :D He has removed the pickaninny rail...not necessary.
He has shortened the LOP to 121/2 inches, 2.7 Leopold Firedot scope, 30ml tube and action is (in his words) slick as snail snot on wet roof! If it could cook he would marry it...(he's been in Oz too long)!!:D A bit loud but no louder than his Ruger 77 Mark II .306...he got some aromatherapy today firing a Tikka .338 at a target 300 metres away...fanblimingtastic...
Hand loads for the .308 are 150grain round nose soft point Hornaby bullets, 43 grains of ADI powder 2206H and is printing a twenty cent piece at 80 metres. He wants to go up to 180grain, hollow point round nose...should be really good deer stoppers...
1. I have known women like that. 2. He has five foot long arms?Quote:
