No more however... eyesight not 100% these days.

Very nice shooting above - minute of bunny's eye. You might win a shoot-off with an occasional great group, but it is always continuous and consecutive group set accuracy that wins championships. I particularly like Flocks 0.49" average with Eley High Velocity ammo - that's a hunting round and will translate into excellent field accuracy.

Well done guys - looking forward to seeing more

Get into it .25 is achievable, enjoy having a play

What do you think of the 457 @flock
Had a couple of mates go out and buy the MTR but they were not happy with them infact one took his back
Apparently subsonic was leaving the muzzle supersonic (which for most people wouldn’t be the end of the world)
But hes a Professional pest control hunter and reliable subsonic loads with a suppressor is key to his work
On top of that he said the rounds were super tight to chamber like had to hammer the bolt home with your plam
