About LinkBacksA lot of those old guns made from hand finished solid steel parts will still be enjoyed by your childrens children. Not so much for the alloy, stamped,pressed or plastic parts built rifles of today that are built to a price rather than built for a purpose.

Classic rifle FatLabrador - must be nice to be able to use Granddad’s rifle

Went home and confessed to Dad - he said - for Christ sake we won’t tell Mum - he took the car to the panel shop next day and they hammered in the uplift, filled it with bog and painted the roof - there was a burn mark on the ceiling upholstery for the next ten years

What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
Rule 5: Check your firing zone
Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

One unlucky plover vs 223 - not much competition I'm afraid.

yes agree, i drilled one with the hmr as well. cut it in half nearly. Also deleted a magpie with the hmr, the bird was in a tall tree near me so shooting angle was about 50deg. the pill entered mid body and literally blew it's entire back out like a hatch but that's probably more to do with the hmr than bird anatomy Originally Posted by 7mmwsm
