    I remember my dad on the farm convincing mum she should take a shot with his jungle carbine 303. Carbine a brutal little bugger with no real recoil pad and a real kick. She gets down into prone...

    Started with a cut down SMLE .303, then an Alpine in 270, didn't like it and went to a shortened PH in .308 until I walked into a Mod 88 Win in .308. Used that rifle for years and still have it and...

    Greetings Bumblefoot, I may have talked about it in the past, memory is not quite what it was. The .307 Winchester, together with the .356 Winchester were attempts to breath new life into the M94....

    I've had the same 10/22 since 1984 and never felt the need to replace it. It's gone through a huge number of rounds and despatched countless pests without issues unless it gets very dirty... by which...
