    akaroa1, would also love to own a Hagn. I looked at the one in Australia for sale two or three years ago. It had been rebarrelled many years ago and in keeping. I’ve got a couple of Dakota M10’s...

    I must clear up re the hagn, I do not own it anymore. It was chambered in a 6.5 cal using a 204 case. My best shot with it was on a wallaby at 328 yrds in the head. Shear fluke, but I did shoot a lot...

    I do it all the time. A heads up as you have done, rock up, they will wrap some yellow tape around the case, make sure it’s locked and then they chuck through the oversize scanner. Don’t be a...

    So here is something a bit different, spotted in a LGS and added to the rustoration pile (although this one is in very nice condition, the takedown screw is bruised and the barrel is a wee bit dark)....

    grandpamac, I have a citadel martini rebarrelled in 38/55 with a Tony Hawkins barrel, I'm not allowed to use it in open sights competitions at my local club anymore, it's too accurate.
