    The cheek weld position is lower, you will need to get used to it by shooting it more. Come back and tell us how it is going one hundred critters from now. You have seven days and then we will apply the fantail in flight test.

    @Dundee You can bloody shoot there is no doubt about it, I wouldn't have changed the stock though. Why fix what isn't broken?

    Looks like the barrel is bent. Makes your efforts even more impressive. How do you do at shootin' round corners?

    Yeh I saw that as well. Surely it has to be an optical illusion caused by the background.

    Perhaps it is bent and the forend pressure from the old stock brings it straight, Max ??

    I see these rifle upgrading efforts from Dundee and that's all very well and good, but I haven't seen any time devoted to the 'Hare at 190 odd metres' repeat the shot challenge yet. There is time for Balloon shooting and other sidetracking but no time to maintain your honour Dundee.
    How about as penance you provide a full unopened jug of Watties 'Train-smash' as a target for one of the next forum shoots ??? Oh and you be tied in a chair with your eyes taped open and forced to watch every shot !!

    That stock would make I nice trophy, furthest one shot glove kill. Maybe added to the Toby shoot. Start at 100 everyone has one shot each, those that hit go onto the next round to say 120m and so on in till only one left. Dundee will end up taking it home anyway judging by the way he shoots.

    Took my .22 out to 120yards today have to admit I have been sceptical that I could shoot it that far out but it was easy and I have no doubt 200yd accurate shots are more than achievable, next time bigger paddock

    My kids all did there p.b today got them out to 60yds was gonna give them a go at 100yds too but it started to hose down.
    I usually just set up at 25-30 yds for the kids.

    Wonder if you can get .22LR loaded with CETME style VLD, extra gyroscopically stable, projectiles.



    Anyone got a mini CNC lathe? (-:
