    Just picked this up tonight. Ordered it last June was a long wait but well worth it. X-bolt eclipse hunter in .308. First in nz so I'm told by the importer. Can't wait to scope it and put a few through it Name:  IMG_0059.jpg

    Very nice.
    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

    Cheap & cheerful Norinco 7.62x39 ,sun optic rings & tasco world class , 125 grn Barnaul hollow points, after final adjustment the bottom 3 shots are the last group at 80 yards so pretty happy with that it should be a nice bush gun.

    Just be aware that about 90% of those 7.62x39 Chinese barrels do not have a bore that follows the outside contour. Ask peril357 here on the forum about it.

    If suppressing with an over barrel suppressor the rear bush will have to be quite a loose fit(so might as well not be there) or it will piss up the suppressor,muzzel forward cans should be fine.

    Picked up another new firearm from Reloaders this afternoon. Not putting up a photo because then you would know I had another fire arm and I wouldn't want that on the interweb thingy. Ha ha ha ha
