Hi, how many Moa or mills does that scope have ? I suppose it is only just one revolution? How far you reckon you can shoot with it just by adjusting the turret?( no using the reticle)

It has bugger all adjustment, only 3 mil but that’s far enough to get me out to 500yds with a 100yd zero, that’s far enough for me.

It does have mil dot reticle which gives another Mil if I hold over.

Certainly no flies on that rig😂

And version 2.0 is born. This one still 16" might keep it like that for a while see how it goes. Now just need to decide what the rebarrel the other one in since the chamber in it curently has a hole in it.....? Something that will fit and feed
from the mag.

Cryptic bugger I’m trying to put the picture together and I see a drill press re other action you always liked the 22-250 didn’t you? Fast twist 80 grain eldm 18ish” barrel could be neat for around the farm

You're onto it.... For some reason when I took the 1" talleys off to put the 30mm ones on the very front screw just snapped off while I was undoing it. Thought I would drill it out so set it up in the press and put a wee bit of tape around the drill bit so I knew how far to drill. Everything was working excellent when it went pop! and broke right through the chamber. Bloody tape had slid up the drill bit and I didnt notice so I had drilled a hole right down through the barrel into the chamber. Lucky the wife was in a good mood and I did a particularly good puppy dog face with my broken rifle in my hand so I shot into town and bought another Superlight they had on the shelf at our local sportshop. Will get the original one rebarelled just not sure what, something that stands apart from the 308 (which is a bit of an ask as they just do everything..) and will feed from the mag. A 243 or 6 creed superlight would be cool. I have plenty of components for one.

RS, Can you could fill the hole with a silver solder, push the chamber in a turn and a a half so the hole in barrel doesn't line up with the ring screw hole?

@Ryan_Songhurst 6mm Creedmoor!

Many nice rifles, seems to be quite a few carbon stocks we don't see here.

My Blaser R8 killstick is finished. Not light, but lighter.

Nice.
10.5lb. Still only half the weight of a Bren Gun.

Mauser 66? You don't see a lot of them around

Bit of an oddball setup, rem660 in 6mm creedmoor, was a 284 win when I got it but being shorter mag length than a mod 7 it wasn't the best. Trigger and action feel really good and weight isn't too bad with the reasonably heavy barrel. Hopefully improve the groups with some reloads.

Yeah, but I'm after deer, not germans or russians
