    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

    @Mintie nice rifle, did you drill and tap the stock to get that picatinny to screw on? I am wanting something similar on a .22 I have that is a synthetic stock.

    Just a hole drilled into the hollow cavity then a countersunk hex bolt pushed through and a nut on the inside to tighten it up with.

    That's roughly what my 10 shot groups look like, but I've got a T3, and they ALL shoot like that.
    What do you mean by weapon? Oh do you mean a firearm /rifle?
    A weapon is something that is used in an act of violence.

    A little safe love mark here but bore is mint and action smooth. This is my 4th vixen and without a doubt the best I have seen.
    I had two guys try to buy it from me before I even left the store when collecting!

    Now does anyone have a nice spare Irish contract No4Mk2 to go with it?

    With the rest of my small collection.

    Nothing new besides the LA mk4 rail.
    All but one just played musical scopes.
    M24 with 5-25 Atacr Mil-XT, XM-3 clone based on LTR action/barrel in 308 x20" with 4-14 F1 SHV mil-r, AICS with Rem700 .223 heavy barrel shortened to 18" & Mk4 3-10 TMR scope, and a little Ruger 556 with Mk4 2-8 TMR scope in magpul stock.
    Now to re-zero...
