    Magnetite liked post by JohnDuxbury On thread : A word to the wise re safety!
    Yep that's true, the reload is automatic and it should be. Next we will have to stop shooting things because it means loading the rifle. As for a "half cock" bolt position - it should be done...

    Magnetite liked post by Cartman On thread : Advice needed, I"ve got the pits!

    Magnetite liked post by chainsaw On thread : Wood vs Synthetic Stock - Felt Recoil

    We use the FTX supers in supersonic in three calibres -357 , 7.62x39, and the dino gun . They certainly do a number but the smaller rounds do not seem to penetrate very deep if they hit something...
