    Good. But you will have to teach it the difference between a Red and a Fallow. You were Fallow hunting.

    I was fallow hunting and I found 40kg of biltong and sausages walking around my fallow block. I couldn't just leave it there.

    Still getting it done with the ol Leupold Mark 6.
    How much does the rifle weigh as pictured?

    Were you using the 108 ELD-Ms?

    Yup, until someone makes a better option... or I sell it for a March to get even more matching

    About 3.6kg

    Yep 108s

    This is all well
    My head
    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

    Do you know how heavy the EH8 is?
    Looks like it should be heavier than that based in pictures?

    It's on the cards. Where does one actually obtain decent .22LR ammunition from these days though? Lapua, Eley, SK

    3.85kg with an empty 6rd Magpul AICS

    The suppressor cover adds about 80gm (3.85 includes this)

    EH8 may be a little heavier than the Glacier

    All of those 3 make high quality match ammunition.
    The big question is where can you get consistent supply of good quality mid range products in volumes that with a little stock piling allow for regular practice.
