Thread: Show us your Varmint rifles

I think you should wear that barrel out as fast as possible, and stick a 1:8" one on there...

G'Day Gimp,

Apparently, there is a strong Westerly wind blowing, so I hope that gets your Christmas Presents to you, before you fly out!!!

The wonderful thing about that rifle is, I can very easily screw out and in any barrel, that has been made up for it.
I made up a barrel vice, using an old piston Connecting Rod (conrod).
Where the slipper bearing normally sits, I machined up an aluminum bush that was a snug fit in the conrod and a slip fit over the barrel.
I used a hacksaw to make a cut from the outer diameter, into the inner hole and this has enough give in it to clamp onto the barrel!
I really do need a digital camera!!!
With a Davidson Action Wrench where the bolt normally goes, a bit of a nudge and that loosens the barrel.

Doh!

I've put about 30 rnds through since getting the mod fitted. Raggy 1.5 inch gps at 100m with some dubious quality Wirehunt/Ernie rabbit special reloads, then out to a ranged 378m on an enemy rock and associated lumps of mud. more practice with my newly acquired Hornady training ammo soon !!

Silly gun

Is that one of those cans with the beer bottle caps in them Gimp?
Mitch Maxbury was making them, uses bottle caps for baffles.
Told him he should stick beer bottle label on them and market through booze companies like Tui etc - not sure he ever did

Nah, it's a gunworks "Stubbie"


doesn't work too hot on the 12" barrel, need to get something a bit bigger


Or get a longer barrel when I get around to replacing the factory one

I have a Bunny Buster 'Black Mumba' on mine.
Was really good on the 14.5

Doesn't he "not exist" now?
