    A couple of examples from Austria.

    Iv wanted an Ultralight for many years but by the time I could afford one they had stopped production and became hard to fine. This one in 222Rem in 9 twist performs flawlessly.

    Iv had an HMR from very early on, starting with an anschutz 1517, moved to a Weihrauch HW60 for a grown up full sized rifle which was a far better and now to a Steyr zephry II. Full sized but a little lighter than the weihrauch.

    I lusted after an ultralight in .308 for years also, but couldn’t find one, so moved on. Very classy rifle, as light as some carbon stocked rifles.

    They are pretty thin the ground. Funny thing, a few days after I picked this up Gun city listed one in 223.

    New to me via the Forum, a Bergara BA13 in 308 with a Burris Fullfield 2.5-10x42 currently sitting in shitty rings coz I broke the leupold ones while mounting the scope (doesnt know his own strength). DPT mini centrefire up front, to make a nice reliable and compact rifle for a quite short tall person.
    Nothing fancy but I've wanted this setup for a while but the piggybank has been empty when the deals have come up.
    The Forum has provided both items recently and Roktoy has his new toy.

    Nice. A good all rounder that will cover most situations. I have the same rifle in 300BLK.

    New 6.5 PRC barrel for the R8, and an A-Tec H2 can with one module removed, and a brake cap fitted. Running 156 EOL’s.

    I needed to do a bit of a barrel break in and zero the scope, so some best guess rounds off Quickload got me going.

    I’m mulling over chopping it 2”.

    We’re off to Dublin for Xmas / NY, so won’t be doing any more till we’re back.

    I put a photo of this up a few pages ago in raw form
    Ie incomplete
    Was still running the millsurp stock and the barrel wasn’t blued

    Left it with a mate a couple of months ago he makes stocks for fun but is a Very talented stock builder
    He has built me a beautiful stock out of wallnut he managed to score when a tree fell down in a storm close to his house
    Come back last night via the gunsmith who blued the barrel

    So it’s a remington rolling block action genuine Remington too not a sweedish copy
    Valcan 32” barrel 45-90
    Custom stock made to measure for me shooting sitting on shooting sticks
    Put a limbsaver on it (yes I know) not traditional but 45-90 with 540gn bullets is alot to tame
    Even with a rifle that waighs about 16lb and im shooting 50 rounds in a day for matches
