    Would love a 17
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    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

    My missus would skin my bollocks if I went and brought another rifle right now. I still haven't picked up the last one. Still a 17 would be bloody useful here as ther are lots of turkeys to snipe the heads of.

    Will probably pass down the WM to my youngest daughter. She is really developing a keen interest in firearms. She shot her first clear round at the pistol club yesterday. I shot two clears but her time whipped my arse.

    Each to their own but any point in putting an animal on the net blown in half? Even though it's "only a rabbit" it's still a bit rough.

    Think he's demonstrating the destructive ability of the .223
    This particular thread is the holy grail for blitzed critters though mate. Best you don't go too far through the pages if you don't like it.

    Appreciate that a 223 will wreck havoc but perhaps not best to show the world.....
