    Good outing close to Christchurch last night with gadgetman in attendance plus couple of mates. Cross winds an issue for the 22WMR - and the 223 to some extent - but still popped 26 in about 2.5 hours. Mostly hares. Gadget did well with 223.

    Getting to know this Marlin stainless heavy barrel 22WMR - certainly lives up to its reputation as a hard hitting little rimfire. Extremely accurate off the bench - down to 0.3" groups at 50m and even a tad less. An interesting caliber experiment..

    A quality PCP with the right pellet will often outshoot a 22LR on precision.
