    mudgripz Savage I think it was an 85 or 87 model. The bolt fired from closed but was in two pieces. The two pieces seperated when cycling. Both parts travelled to the rear under recoil Then the...

    On the 22's, I would go with the wood stocked Norinco and ignore 10/22 semis and expensive bolt actions. The average distance to shoot rabbits is 35 - 50 mtrs. Hares 50 - 70 mtrs. A JW 15 will put...

    That's what I run on my Bush Pig with an M24 Maxtoch. Very quick to fix or remove, quite stable.

    My best in the Hawkes Bay is 1058 on my own for three afternoons. Mainly long range with .223 and .22-250, so there was no need to gut them after shooting.

    Hi Dicko no it had two action screws. It’s been moved on to another home now, going to put my time and effort into the JW. It’s showing real promise.

    So I’ve given away the chase with this one. ( the anschutz that is) Took the tasco 3-9 scope off it, and plonked it on the JW-15 and adjusted the parallax to 50m. Then proceeded to turn in 4...

    Works fine on Leupold variables - I've done a VX2 2-7×33 and a VX3i 4.5-14x40. The difficult part can be getting the front ring off - I recommend a large hose clip over a scrap of leather. Just don't...

    Not necessarily a "rimfire" scope but if you want to eliminate the variables when shooting paper with a 22LR, adjustable parallax is essential IME...Preferably something that goes down to 25 yards or...
