    I'm keen - got a Tikka that I bought back in 1976, $415 with scope. Or a Husky 8x57 that I bought recently that shoots amazingly well with an old Kahles 4x I had in the cupboard for a few years. Or a...

    Yep but you need a magnum bolt face, at least a 2.970" internal length magazine & not a Tikka barrel

    Yes, I must. We have a good load for it. And actually, I have a featherweight Mod 7 glass stock but you would have to have it first and bed it. I like to 7mmsaum/300saum and 270wsm because I think...

    Have 4 of the Burris Signature Series 3-10 x 40, all brought second hand between $170-$420. Really suit my old eyes with their excellent focusing plus very clear. There seem to be underrated in NZ.
