The truck driver shifting the pallet of arms from customs clearance to the dealer probably doesn't have a firearm license either. Lets not make this more difficult than it has to be.

I have used 5 300prc rifles and all shot well. All loaded with 230 atips or 225eld match. If I didn't have my 300 norma mag I would not hesitate to buy that chambering. Big 30s are a great...

Used to travel by horse and cart too. Better options these days though aye? A bush rifle is carried heaps and shot little. Why not have something light and compact if you have the option.

Why light weight for a bush shooter? I would of thought balance, quickness to shoulder and a solid half cock would be the priority
