    Bill999 I’m the same I hunt around a lot of water, rain, drizzle, low cloud and fog, it’s too much work looking after a non stainless steel rifle. We only had 25m-30m max visibility getting this...

    Bigger is better when it comes to pigs, unless head and neck shooting.

    The other option is try and find a cheap stainless 222 or 223 and rebarrel it with a Trueflie or other top quality fast twist barrel.

    Yes rebarreled not reamed. My rifle was a stock standard 1:12 223rem T3 that I picked up cheap on Trademe for $700 then sent it off to the gunsmith for a new 1:7 12” barrel with the same Tikka...

    Kimber Adirondack are the only factory stainless steel bolt action that I know of. Gun city had some semi custom Howa, CZ and Tikka T3 in stainless made up a year or two ago with cheap suppressors.

    That was also one of the reasons I stopped using 130gr SST on deer from blowing up on the skin. During a roar one of my mates put 5 130gr SST rounds on a stag at 240m then I had to put a 140gr AB to...
