    1. A bog standard Remington 700sps I paid $500 for. It shot a 168gr A max in front of 2208 as good as a full blown custom rifle.

    2. A Marlin XS7 in 223, I got for free because it was miss-feeding and quote "it's gonna get thrown off a bridge if you don't want it". 10 mins with some pliers got the magazine sorted and feeding again. It shot everything from 55gr soft points to 75gr A Max effortlessly in little groups. Shot heaps of goats and steel at long range.

    Both guns I should of just left alone and used.
