Thread: Gun Porn, show off your new toys

I didn't intend getting so carried away - but when I saw the wood grain (as most are not very nice in that department)
I thought - why not
Not sure how I will go with the Doc (I got it at wholesale) no dioptre adjustments with these - but it seem good and it will only be used on pigs close in (less than 40m)
Recoil pad was added/changed too - Dave Ward did the job
Got some subs from prev owner to try out - anyone suggest what factory ammo to use

I would give Sellier and Bellot a go first, at least it's loaded up to a decent power and seems good quality. PPU isn't too bad either. If you want cheap - Barnaul but the bullets seem pretty hard and don't expand quickly.

I'm using Highland 127gr soft points and am very impressed with it stopping power on deer and goats and seems to have good accuracy through my AR

Man that is purty. Good job. Would be keen to hear how you go with the Docter

Mint rifle, @Sarvo

So ive had this Toz .22 for a few years now got it for very cheap at a gun city sale is basically like new came with a wee Nikko Tiara 4x20 good setup nailed bunnies at 100M with the post reticle only problem was it wasnt great for spotlighting due to its small objective/tube, recently @Sarvo was giving away a Leupold M8 scope so I nabbed it for this beastie as it would suit it perfectly. Someone else also at almost exactly the same time messaged him wanting it for a .22 for his boy so I paid forward to him a Hawke Sport HD 4x32 scope I had for this but never put on.

Another Glock. Different from the last, but equally as boring.

Thought I’d never buy another tikka. But this was too cheap to ignore. Goes bang, deer die. Good old 308

Have you done any load development for it?

Hey mate. No I haven’t, grabbed some factory ammo the day I picked it up and it shot half inch groups so rapt! The guy I bought it off wrote down his preferred load, but I don’t have 308 dies.

A bit of a mixture.... rpr 6.5 cm ( mm), and a NF atacr(moa). Also all second hand.....and all via this forum.....


Oh and 2 shots by me (just needed to shoot it before getting wet - it's not because I'm a jafa now, it's because I don't like cleaning guns......), before it started pissing down, so not even sighted in yet......
