    Tikka t3 18" Hardy can,SHV 4x14.Loaded with 150gr eldx and a dash of 2208(possibly @buzzman 's recipe?).Haves dropped deer at 350m and rang steel at 700m.My 10yr old son has happily shot it on steel out to 300m with no complaints.

    I've been using a 7/08 for 10-15 years now. If I do my part, everything seems to fall over from 0-500 yards pretty well.

    The 7mm08 is still proving itself as a dual purpose machine, anyone just started using one or picked up another after having a break ?

    Bit cold for a northern fulla that’s for sure, pig rooting grows icicles like mushrooms, hard to say no when deer hunting offers are a once a decade thing these days
