Well actually I was delivering a stock to @dannyb and had arranged a carpark to meet, when I got there I sort of guessed where he would be and I was correct. I swear he was drooling but seeing how much taller than me he is I couldn't be sure.Quote:

Makes the rifle a heck of a lot easier to carry too. I have taken the sling studs out of all my rifles and looped the slings on the barrel instead.Quote:

I am thinking to myself that your Mrs must be feeling quite nervous and unsettled over all this swapping and changing esp when the word 'fondled' has been used and worried that she might be next ?Quote:

Yip, not everyone's cup of tea and pretty heavy, but I just cannot complain about the performance of this wee gun over all for the price, and it fits in any bag you like broken down - except for hand bags of course.
Second or third post here for me so here's hoping the attachment attaches...standby...

They’re an underrated rifle for sure. I’ve had a few.Quote:

Got this setup after a bit of shopping around. Custom Guns in Invercargill had this scope & rifle for a sharp deal. Bergara Wilderness HMR in 300PRC. Bit of a laser and is doing the deed. Loves the Hornady ammo.

Hornady 180gr,good ammo in the 300.
Enjoy,theres plenty of deers running around down there.
how does she shoot?
Sub moa. Minimal velocity spread with the Hornady Precision Hunter 212gr -the drop is very consistent right out to 1150m which is as far as I've gone with it. If only I could judge the wind as well hahaQuote:

Who can tell what's wrong with the picture of the M1917?
The bolt knob appears to be at a wrong angle but that could just be the camera angle.
Nope.Quote:

34 days for my scope to do a lap of the world, visit the swaro factory, and back in my grubby mits. Back on the wee kimber and it's shooting great. Just shooting some factory Fiochi 95gr SST stuff at the moment cos I'm a lazy prick and can't be bothered reloading, it's pretty anemic at just over 2800fps but will do the job out to 300 untill I can be bothered getting on the press again. Real impressed with the little Nielson Sonic Compact suppressor, really compact little unit with stainless internals on the wear points of the baffles and total rifle weight still under 3kg. Kind of like this wee rig again despite the journey its been to get it up and running properly
All ready to roll, been putting this together over the last year. The new 284win
26” krieger barrel 8.5 twist, t3 brake
Manners EH1, piller bedded
Atlasworx bottom metal
Nightforce NX8 in ultralight rings

Pretty sweet rig and only 3.27kg, can't wait to sight her in at the range later this week :cool:

Very nice, that's a tank tamer on the end there.
the muzzle brake is aluminium so it's quite light but very much needed, the ol 30 06ai has a fairly decent recoil without it pushing 178gn pills, it's a pussy cat with the brake though more like a 308 shooting 120gn pillsQuote:
