This is my bush rig and has smoked over 100+ deer, a cheap second hand Tikka T3 223rem rebarreled to a 12" 1:7 300BLK. The 300BLK doesn't need a long barrel unless you want to shoot further out then...

I have had a 1-7 22-243 for years, man it can shoot the 90 Berger's, so accurate way out there. Best is a couple of bunnies at 900 yards which was an extremely lucky twofer :)

Yes - and probably going to be used on its "own" civilian population in Donbass !!! Article says "Ukraine now a NATO Country" incorrect - but sure the hell is a NATO Puppet/Trojan Horse

Will be interested to see the results craigc. Most peoples feedback is that the stated 2050fps is overstated and that the guide gun can expect around 1800 fps or slower.

I was using .2300 as the BC (auto settings in Shooter) and I had 1800 as the velocity; that might be a bit slow, I changed it to 1900 and that brought the drop up quite a bit. I’m going to run it...

Yesterday, on the first of the first, I thought I would try and shoot my first deer with my .45/70. It's shot a number of other animals and placed the final killing shot in a fallow deer but...
