    When I was a teenager I had a hard on for a 25/06(quite a new cal then!) but the 308 was doing ok and then beaver hunting became more important and I just never got there for some reason.
    just as likely to take the 303 these days.

    The bulging wallet is infallible , however once you keep one and decide to breed with it she will make dam sure that wallet never bulges again so as not to attract another mate.

    May have to go to that other pub and have some fun :-)

    That's a cool little gun . What sort of speeds you get with a 9.5" barrel? What grain projectiles?
