Tahr has started a good thread on this subject. Rather than have two conversations going, Ill quote this there and move this part of conversation to that thread.
Just had a really cool experience, I had posted about this rifle on another forum and a guy from South Africa, who Ive never had any contact with just offered to send me a spare set of mounts that he...
Yep there are some very good and proven older projectiles out there. Cor lokts were awesome. Interloct still work as well as the day they first came on market. Hot core have been around along time...
Yep I know it cant be avoided at times. Twist rate is 1/10
To be honest, Ive always had an aversion to shooting through scrub anyway. Patience is a virtue, as is picking your shot. Ill go for a head or neck before I put a projectile through obstructions.
Cheers Micky! Think Im all sorted now.
A question for th knowledgable.
The instruction manual suggests using a Torque wrench to the action screws and gives the appropriate torque settings for...

Just couldn't wait, so went out in the rain and did a basic sight in with a handful of Winchester accubond ct rounds I was given. 100yard 3 shot group of 11mm is starting to get me excited.
Yes the thing that decided me on this rifle was that it came in .270, and that it had a 24 inch barrel. Which I think you really want with a .270.
He knows not what he says..:P
Yeah will have to catch up at some stage. Magazine capacity is 4 and blind mag so loaded and unloaded from top.
No neither am I. I just could not get 30mm barrett rings today. So I figured Id get the rail and have it as a back up given they may not make components for this model for much longer, and that gives...
Yes. The last new rifle I bought was 28years ago- A BRNO 600 in same calibre. It was my go too rifle for all that time. I decided I deserved another one rifle/scope combo for everything before I got...
.270 win. That should make you happy!
Quite possibly the last new Barrett Fieldcraft long action available anywhere in world?
Have fitted it with a GPO 1.5-9x44 Illuminted With drop reticle.
If factory data on weights are correct...
