    They may be common and boring but the std 7-08 or .308 T3 Bushpig will fit your bill perfectly. I'd be doing a DPT can now rather than the Hardy. Helmet on and awaiting incoming...

    Dead is better liked post by 6x47 On thread : Airgun doubters watch this. Your LR efforts are on notice! 1000y on a 2L softdrink
    I have no trouble believing the projectile will easily reach that far if you read the ballistics. Hitting what you're aiming at there will be luck but I'd guess he's previously zeroed and tested...

    .303Br headspaces off the rim and unless the bolt head has been interchanged, it should be fine. As Zimmer suggested, the brass is ancient and probably brittle as hell. I'd suggest your "mate's...

    Yep, 43.5 of 2208 is -plenty- with a 140BT. 44 was pretty damn warm in my 22" bbl and 44.5 was def too hot

    I now see your logic but I don't know if they'd be much faster to deploy than mutli-flange plugs hanging round your neck. I'm probably spoilt having a variety of custom in-the-ear electronic...

    They're 'avin a laugh at that price. Basic gun maybe 1600, stock 1300, can 500 so the other minor embellishments are $1100. Line up suckers..
