    yep, most definitely unloaded Dundee. Eagle-eyed forum members would also spy the cocking indicator on the bolt in the uncocked position. Still no substitute for an open bolt though

    Good to see that I am rubbing off on someone Dundee. Well done. 7.62 understands as well from his comments made just after yours. no need for me to get on my high horse

    We were out lamping bunnies with the HMR and this fella popped up, I prefer the 243 for foxes but I think the shot placement was ok

    another few bunnies slayed last night with the .22
    Also got out to test some different factory loads through the .223 as I am running low on the Hornady 55gn SP. Tried TULAmmo 55gn hollowpoints and American Eagle 50gn FMJ.
    The Tula grouped worse than my 12g Skeet gun (3 shot 53mm) however the AE was great with 3 shot groups less than 15mm. Next I want to try some of the AE Varmint tipped in 50gn and 55gn.

    depending on weather will hopefully head out for a decent night of spotlighting tomorrow night and then hopefully some turkeys on Monday
