    Cheers Abe!

    I've had my Mrs out shooting my 6.5x47 a few times just getting her used to a rifle instead of a shotgun which she shoots a lot. It's a primo cal to learn with its got absolutely no recoil and is pretty quiet with the supressor on.

    Yep, I had a Barnard 07 in 6.5*47 that was an awesome rifle. With a heavy barrel & suppressor it that chassis it was really nice to shoot. Unfortunately the need for a projector/home theatre system in the new place meant I had to sell it as a compromise... Said at the time it would be replaced at some point

    If it's not a first round hit you need to practice more

    That's a purty rifle. Good work Abe.

    Yeah mate the 280ai has a brake. The 6.5x47 is a NZ hunter build.

    Mean scope on that 6.5x47L. Pity about those rings though. What were you thinking?

    I wasn't. They need replacing with the new 34mm NF rings.

    What are you running in the 6.5?
    Shut up, get out & start pushing!
