    22 Terminator

    So I recently grabbed a 22 terminator of Kiwi Greg.
    Been using it a heap recently and she is is a demon. 4 shot groups in one hole on the paper at 100yrds.
    She's a tikka with Gunworks can, fluted bolt, Barrel, vx3 6.5-20x50 on the top.
    Having done a heap off shooting with a 223 and 204 I wasn't sure what this would bring to the party....
    I was wrong as usual
    Today in good conditions I shot out to 1000yards on steel, groups where under moa.
    She's putting the 53gr vmax out at just under 3700fps
    Shot a heap of pests today out to just under 800yards, in no wind
    Below is some results, first shot was at 450 yards downhill bullet went a touch low, the rest where all in the head
    Any way if your after something a bit different to sort the critters out consider one of these

    How many shots before the barrel is knackered and how much does the dies cost? Also on Doc land would this be legal.

    Mean looking gun

    Barrel life should be good as long as you don't cook it mate.
    Someone in the no will answer that for you I guess
    Dies are usual price
    Doc land I'm not sure mate?
    I was giving that thought as well,
    75gr amax will sort out a moose
    Come have a play sometime

    Nice work Brads!
    Sounds like a sweet little round, those 75 A-max's certainly go well!
    I've been thinking about building a fast twist .22-250 for a while but the .22 Terminator sounds like its pretty close with a bit less powder.
    Recoil should be pretty low?

    There is no recoil mate
    I'm using the 53gr vmax for the critters
    But can run the 75gr amax at around 3250 but as for the vs 22-250 I'm not the one to ask mate
