    On very very rare occasions I think a “ Dislike “ button would be handy here

    Cool, happy for you. For the first 3 shots from the rifle since it had the work done and new stock, factory ammo, i am stoked with it.

    Picked up this M7 in 260 with great plans for a custom build but thought I would see how she goes first. Chopped to 17", DPT, VX3 3.5x10. 100gr NBT with a full case of 2209 doing 3k. Very handy little rifle.

    It isn't your money. Pretty sure we could all start picking you apart if we were so inclined. And yes, you own an X-Bolt so just zip it, hate to see people waste their money on junk

    Life is short and there is no point taking money with you when it’s over.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    It's only junk if it shoots bad.

    Just a reminder this thread is for people to share their gun porn not pick shit apart that doesn't appeal to your fragile sensibilities
    So maybe step away from the keyboard rifle this has gone on long enough already.
    Let's leave it at that and have some more pics of folks sweet sweet rigs

    My 'New' old Parker Hale 303, very tidy rifle with no real signs of use apart from a few little scuffs here and there. Shoots well (for a 303) with a sub 1" group at 50 yards open sights. Good old trademe find, I'll be hanging onto this one. Just need to run a few more rounds through it out to 100-200 yards so i can confidently take it hunting.

    Good save on the picture rotation
    I've always liked Browning rimfires , what distance are those targets shot at , not bad for open sights .
