Thread: First deer for the Hardy barrel.

Went for a walk Saturday morning and scored a nice yearling. First deer for the new 28 inch Hardy barrel in 300 win. Only 250 metres but it went where it was supposed to so can't complain. A bit more load development to do but big thanks to Lee at MOA Engineering in Dunedin.

Well done, what's it like to carry with the massive magazine? I guess with longer barrel and suppressor the ballance point is thurther forward so not an issue

I wont lie and say i don't notice the weight but my biggest issue with it being a Rem long range was that I could not hold it steady for the occasional offhand shot. Me being only 75 kgs . So with the carbon barrel and hardy suppressor it is 1kg lighter at front even with 2 inchs added and 24 mm profile. The big mag is needed I was counting 40 on the crop on this farm early this year. My average shot is 300 so the extra weight helps me just takes longer to get there.
