Thread: Gun Porn, show off your new toys

RE: Badger M2008 , its OK , BUT as we in NZ have to deal with the new high price of US Export permitting & increased level in airfreight charges from the US , I can honestly say , you will be close to the same price as a REAL AI rifle , and as such , at the same price level , the Badger is NOT as good as the real deal .

I say this NOT to put your OFF the Badger , but to give the best advice I can in hind sight .

Given what I have just said , why did I DO it , will I brought them just before the US GovT , changed all the rules , and I got caught out with the change due to delays in trying to export them .

So in short , just order the AI rifle you want from the UK , Sporting Services .

RE; the Norma , I am more interested in the longer 338LM , over the shorter Norma , I need all the powder room , I can get to push the heavy 300gr pills .

The barrel on my M2008 is a Bartlien 1-10 twist , 5R , with a AI AWM barrel contour .

I also own a few AI rifles , as well as these Badgers , so feel I can give advice on both .

Brake is a Badger FTE , similar to the AI design .

I am running 208gr Amaxs at 2880 fps , and they are accurate at that speed .

Yours Chris
