    I actually like cock on closing, it makes extraction and ejection easier and was chosen for some military rifles as it's less tiring to operate for a prolonged period which admittedly is unlikely for...

    Speed isn't necessarily the answer to getting to 300 without the need for turret adjustments or holdover, zeroing distance is also an answer as said above. A 3-9 is perfect for point and shoot ...

    My parker hale safari won't, and I've seen a featherlight Winchester plus several others which do the same. It's to do with the size and shape of the extractor. I also have a Husqvarna that will feed...

    The one drawback with control feed is that it's not possible to drop a round on the magazine follower and load it, the round needs to come up from the mag. I've seen people "hammer " a live round...

    Peering through the mist i can just make out the target, that's pretty good shooting in weather conditions like that. 🙂

    I know it's target shooting but how many of us could do that with a scoped rifle, bipod, rear bag or all the other stuff at our disposal?

    Good write up and honest about the misses. You don't mention calibre but I'm picking 708, 308 or similar by the drop you mention. Zeroing at 2 and a half or 3 inches high at 100 should give you...
