Have a look at the barrel. If it's got a bsa marking it is likely to be a model a or b I think. They bought a lot if them and ended up with the d and e models with new stock, flattened floorplate,...

they were behind each other most likely and got both with one shot lol

Yup nowt wrong with that. Very nice. Jealous

Ryan_Songhurst did you ever get rid of the P14 303 with a stuffed barrel ages ago?

Got an old savage rifle I repurposed years ago.
Mag was rooted and gave it to a guy that badly needed one.
If you know where one is I might be interested

Saw one of those in Rangoon on retardme.
Same one perhaps? I did have some fun tokens and eyed that up but just a little out of the budget

Good one.
Drilled for a side scope mount not on the top?
With the original profile mag it's one of the a-c models.
If it has a bsa barrel it's a C I think.
Looks good
@Norse that's pretty crap...

better than the basic lightweight M70 that came out the same time. Featherweight style stock is usually darker and looks far less agricultural.
Got a Lightweight 70 243 albut identical to the one...

what scope did you end up using Ryan?

FRST that's what she said lol
but yes agree. Yup that's bloody nice

Nice.
Very nice

Shearer I wasn't going to do it lol

really?

Tentman that's a nice looking rig.

Tuckerbox At least you have a limbsaver. I never paid much attention to the recoil pad on mine but when I got it back recently I had a look. It might be 25mm thick but I reckon its as hard as my 4x4...

kotuku I've used 1 7/8" 3 incc magnums on geese before in the old Mossberg pump. they are quite stout. Not as robust as the 416 but I've fired more in one go with them than the remmy.

Finally some pics of my old girl. 416 rem max, loopy 1.5x5 with old Warne premier QD rings and bases circa 98'
Got it back a couple of weeks ago.
Mushroomed projectile is one mate and I dug out of...

That's after he's arsed up in the hills and taken a big chunk out of the stock lol

To a point I agree with you and I think you may have misread a single line about someone's else's rifle against what I do to my own.
yes they are meant to be used. yes they do get marked up and...

Ryan_Songhurst
I disagree. You do appreciate it and don't want to bugger it up. The new Zealand bush is a very unforgiving place compared to a Bavarian tree stand where you've carried your rifle in...

jealous of the rifle and the trip.
Nice

overheard a gunshop employee in Palmerston north way over 20 years ago telling a customer who brought one of these in that they weren't that good. they weren't worth much because they weren't a bolt...

Quadocular-like 3d but 4d

best stock I've ever seen on a baikal too.

Shamus thank you
