Your new looks a lot nicer then that, Bloody crossbolts
Toby, what is it with you and cross bolts?

They make it look like shit. IMO. The only time I have seen one look cool was it had been covered with the back of the shell from the cartridge the gun shot, even then I still would prefer it without it.
So you don't think this looks any good?

I think that is magnificent! The cross bolts are a must for a beautiful rifle!
Well tbh it really does look like shit, everyone has their own taste.
If this didn't have the cross bolt it would look so much nice to me.

Both rifles use remington 700 actions blue printed and trued, shillen match grade, hand lapped barrels in .223 ackley improved and .270 finished at 22 inches and fluted with predator 8 sound moderators.
Jewel trigger on the .223ai and rifle basics trigger on the .270 set at 1 and 1.5 pounds.
McMillan stocks, free floated barrels and bedded actions.
Scopes are Nightforce NXS 5.5-22x50 and Swarovski Z6i 2-12x50.
Both shoot well under .5 MOA with hand loads and some factory ammo when and if a do my bit.

If you look carefully you can just make out the Figure 11 targets in the distance!!
All the best.
Thats pretty nice, is it 2100yrds or just 100yrds?
I was thinking that cant be 2100 but it looked a little like a 2 :D
Whats the hunting like around your neck of the woods, Is it hard to get guns and go hunting or what?
Snotting distant fig 11's and 14's thru a tx 1200 barrel? Not many in NZ would have had the misfortune? Those were the days, eh, then technology interfered.
