    Great thing's come in short packages

    Well fuk me finally got to sight in me bang sticks that I'd been mucking around with over the poxy lockdown, New 3-15 VX 5 firedot ( little big for the gun hence the ugly bag to get some cheek rest ) & then decided to try some heavier pills in the 30 ARX aka 30grendal


    The results are pretty impressive I reckon, 223 - 30 ARX - 308 for comparison


    30 grains of 2207 pushing a 155 A-Max @ 2435 fps out'a a 16" tube, fuk now she's a realistic & humane 400 yard Red killer, chur chur

    You would say that Phil.

    Seriously, that's good ballistics for the short action. Sounds like the 7.62x39 reinvented ?

    Cheers Phil
    Hunter was all about Phil's small people stocks.
    He did ask if was going to be taller than you when he grows up.

    Just a question about shooting position. Should the right leg be bent instead of left? I have always bent right leg, is there a proper way or just what is most comfortable?

    Thats a sweet looking rifle and awesome ballistics, way better than I'd have guessed.

    Once upon a time I would've questioned these small wildcats, but the likes of the 6mm-223 and this, you can get some sweet performance from these (comparably) small little cases.

    @Philipo you obviously don't regret not selling this in December. I thought you had it SPF? Good to see it still proving itself.

    That's a seriously cool and handy little rifle, I was wondering where it had gotten to.
