    Pretty impressive group @ 400yrds for a dedicated hunting bullet there Abe. Would be well under MOA for that one bugger out the right.

    You should be nutting out the best way to fit a rail for the chiller, not playing with ammo
    Do what ya want! Ya will anyway.

    Gun Porn, show off your new toys

    It is under MOA yes, but for that one cold barrel shot (I am told)it would have been ridiculous and well under.

    You know my maffs is shit!
    Like I can't count how many snapper were caught this past weekend.
    I am stuck on 1 for some reason!

    My sippy cup will be buggered as it has a coffee in it.
    Pretty sure I left it on the bench behind the couch or on the quad.

    Field covered you reckon VC?
    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

    Yeah thats what the sales guy told me too

    The glass on both is pretty cheap but will have to do until I can save up a few more dollars for a decent scope for the .308 and will then move the nikko to the .22

    If skimming rocks across the water doesn't satisfy you, you throw in a big one to make a splash
