    Was that the same shop you posted about having three bits of fluff working out the front? Hahaha.
    The best value for money guns I've come across have been second hand Blaser on the forum.

    Can’t speak for the project x but the hybrid I got a few months back is farking mint, absolutely would recommended if you’re wanting to spend that sort of coin. Can’t say I’ve had any of the rifle or service issues @Kelton is speaking of, service has been outstanding. I know they test fire everything before it leaves the shop these days so not sure how those issues have come about. Interested to here the full story though!
