Yup, 22nd Feb. Planning on visiting a friend who I have bought the machines off around then. She lives near the Nelson Gun Club. So I should bring my dive gear for checking the anchor holding potential?:)
You better search your wagon or boat if I go fishing with you. I always stash some cash if it is refused.
Bring ya gear, not much here in the way of crays though. We will just hope the weather OK or go shoot some clays insteadQuote:

I will bring the neglected F3 up for a bang as well.
Great, look forward to it.Quote:

If it helps any it's an older sako :)

Happy the .223 likes them. They seem to go really well so far.
Be alright to bring my boy? He will make good bait at least!Quote:

From what I hear those targex are as good as any out there anyway. Not sure what the LR potential is like.Quote:

Na. I had a big spend up on rods gear just recently. It is almost starting to look as organised as my hunting and shooting gear and that is saying something.:oh noes:Quote:

Would they give any great advantage over the 55grn Barnes TTSX, which has a lower BC but more speed?
Just wondering if its worth trying them. Im pretty happy with the barnes so far.
Maybe see a difference at LR, but otherwise I doubt it there will be much point in changing considering the price.Quote:

Bruce just use the 62 grains Barnes if you want to step up, coincidentally I actually have both the 62 grain Barnes and Swifts here at home.
