    I take my hat off to clever folk who can make that work. We are losing both the initiative and the skill for this sort of work. Well done, sir!

    7x57 (top most rifle in pic) Go to for anything that doesn't fly and bigger than a rabbit. Even though I reload, every deer so far has been shot with PPU 140gr 274639
