Thread: THE DREADED FLINCH

Don't say those things, 'Lentil' The trebbly's are not a vegetarians rifle.

My current sako .222 was long ago re-barreled as a .222 Magnum, and not so long ago re-chambered in .223, Two years ago it received another new barrel in .223. So I guess it is probably good for another thousand deer.

I doubt I will shoot them all myself as I find myself thinking up excuses now as to why I should not shoot an animal, As long as I keep my own families, and friends, happy with various cuts of venison its all good.

New pair of Bullers coming up this summer 'Lentil'. Should be good for another thousand miles those. And yes my hand will flinch as it dips into my wallet to pay. You see I get such good mileage out of every pair that what with yearly inflation the price nearly doubles between purchases.

I know when to bite 'Lentil' and when to keep quiet.

Actually funny we have a guy that hunts with us who has turned up recently with a 338 something or other. Its even got legs but it hasn't learned to walk.

We will soon be calling it the vegetarians rifle as he hasn't managed to kill much with it yet.

I think he caught the large calibre disease off andyanimal.
