The trigger is very smooth and precise. There's an initial slack, take up and then once the trigger makes contact with the trigger plunger it's a very tactile sensation.Quote:

It's a fine rifle but I can't quite bring myself to call it my favourite. I'd have to say that the Steyr AUG is the favourite out of my collection. Ergonomically it really suits me and I find it to be more accurate than the SIG and I've have had hands more accurate than mine handle it (the SIG).
The SIG has a 1:7 twist rate (as indicated by the SP2) and my Steyr has a 1:9.
First things first, I know I'm not the first guy to chuck one of these up, but hey...sharing is caring;
For those of you that read my introduction the other day, this is the 7mm08 T3 with the MDT LSS chassis. Can't remember the brand of the stock off the top of my head, but it's about $150 cheaper, and lighter than the go to that most are using if they aren't using the collapsible version. Works well. Scope is Sightronlll 3.5-10x44, only thing I am worried about is the mvt of the turrets if I do travel through some bush, however I am sure this is combatable through simple checks prior to shooting (close range shouldn't be an issue, one guy suggested to chuck a red dot on the side, or iron sights...kinda lol'd...but then I was like, that could be a good idea) I have asked Sightron about the possibility of getting some of their 2016 lockables (I know... It's a long shot...but better to try) Barrel is still the light 19inch with a GW Spartan Suppressor, yes I know it's a lower tier and is far from what I want, but it will do for now. Load development starts in the next couple of weeks.

That is nice rear stock, where did you get it from?
Yeah going good mate accurate and packs a punch, need to get out again after course has finished.
@Friwi Unsure exactly where from TBH. One of the guys that builds rifles imported at some point I think. This is the box though. Might help you find a web site:

Hi,
I have been slowly upgrading my rifle so will do a retrospective of the stages.
It originally started as a Howa .270 with a factory synthetic stock and a Nikko Stirling scope.
Phase 1: I replaced the scope with a Bushnell Trophy 3-9x40 MilDot with Weaver Tactical Rings
Phase 2: I replaced the stock with a Boyds Laminate and pillar bedded it using brass pillars and JB Weld
Phase 3: I replaced the Bushnell Trophy with a Vortex Viper PST 6-24x50 using Burris XTR rings, and bedded a EGW HowA LA Rail.
Really happy with it now, but going to swap the rings out again for a lower model to get a better cheek weld. Groups tightly since the stock change and should be even better now with a good optic, looks forward to shooting it once the new rings are on.
Cheers,
Ollie

Not a new rifle but finally in my new home. Mossberg MMR Hunter threaded for a MAE Mini Target suppressor which I also use on a Savage 93 .22 WMR.
Looking forward to trying it out on a "wallaby weekend" around Waimate at the end of October.

Really??
You need a licence to buy the stuff but she wanted me to keep it in my sock draw???
