Top guy you are @R93
Sorry @ebf. Didn't mean to offend. It's dumb to me because I probably couldn't hit a mini van at 1000 yards.
Intresting thread. Good advice. Good people.
Very generous, thank you very much.
Ended up taking it back and got a 223 Tikka T3 instead.
I think I will stick to target shooting up to maybe 500m instead of my initial thought of up to 1000m.
I am used to firing a 223 and it is nice and comfortable to fire.
Fired 6, 3 shot groups today with it at 100m, all groups were 1 inch or under with the cheapest rounds, so very happy with the rifle.
Can't wait to see what it can do with load development.
Thank you to everyone who commented on this thread, good or bad. It all helps.
And yes, my pussy shoulder is feeling lots better.
Cheers guys, have a great rest of your holidays.
Time to go fishing
Wasn't the rifle or the shooter it was the caliber :)
hahaha fuck, YOU are the problem! Nodding and smiling in the places when I am frowning hahaha. Don't worry though, every couple of weeks I get, "oh, you were right!" about something I've already explained and had ignored ;)
I'm just going bush with my .223, I'm almost looking forward to him getting a rem mag and being done with this .270 bullshit, almost as bad as a .243 :P
Dougie, the problem is quite simple really :P
It is not the caliber, it is the fact that you are trying to build a single rifle... :D
P.S. my vote still goes for 7mm Rem Mag. If you want a single multi-purpose hunting / LR gong gun - that's the ticket IMHO.
