Thread: Fellas - I need some inspiration

@Flyblown
What about something like this? https://www.gunsuppliesnz.com/ruger-...-rifle-223-rem

All good, just got home, showed the wife what I ordered her, and love all round. CZ 527 Carbine in .223... 18.5" barrel, 1:9" twist. That should get a 65gr GameKing up to 2900-3000fps and that'll deal to whatever comes along. Thanks for all your help, much appreciated.

@winaa, that was extremely close, the Ruger, however the 9" twist and true mini Mauser action swayed it in favour of the CZ.

Dave are you still looking at a big banger, you were keen on a 28 Noslar or something similar?

I am still keen as mustard @Mooseman. But I'm sitting on the idea of a powerful magnum at the moment, as I'm struggling to see when I'm going to use it. Last time out, every time we saw deer I asked myself "do I need a magnum?". Nope. I rarely do any open tops hunting these days. Can't really justify getting one and not shooting it a lot, no safe queens allowed. If we move next year it might be a different story. Will have to sell one of the kids though... or maybe the wife's car.
