I got a Brno 452 heavy barrel in 17HMR on impulse...will probably flick it on as not getting time to play with it but do blow up some filled bottles of water the other day and it was very impressive. Your Zastava looks very nice.
i bet you'll love it. I got the standard size one of those and i think it's greatQuote:

Also I must acknowledge Abe Baigent for the build and putting up with my endless tirade of questions along the way. Despite an issue with the scope which has been resolved I’m very happy with the way this has turned out. Thanks Abe!
You sent any down range yet Hayden? Offers still there
Yeah mate but not as far as I would have liked. Thanks for the offer though Gibo I’ll take you up on it when I move home for good latter this year!Quote:

Amax/Accubond combo for now. I’d like to try the swifts at some point as there probably better suited to 280 speeds.

Nice! [emoji779]️
The 280 is lethal and just cool...
Best calibre by far. Apart from te .308 of course. [emoji6]
That's why you have both :DQuote:

Sounds like me. [emoji362]A bloody new 308 and it's Hardly taken out if the safe [emoji779]️
Haha. Mines 6 months old, but still like new. Put 20 rounds thru it, 4 to sight in, then 14 deer/chamois/tahr kills from 16 shots. :thumbsup:Quote:

Removed the old suppressor , cut barrel down to 17" rethread and recrowned and fitted a Dpt.
Tested at a 100m this evening with 130 gr Belmont factory ammo:

I start to love that ammo!
You missed the black dot though :PQuote:

Don't look Gimp...its a .270.
I bought the Vanguard for $530, and had it delivered straight to Gunworks for a chop to 20", threaded and fluted. Meanwhile the Boyds stock was on its way, and Brian bedded it for me. Slammed a VX2 3-9 on top and here's the finished product. My original intention was to barrel it to .284, but it was starting to get a bit expensive so I stuck to the original calibre and barrel.
No special reason for doing it except I've always wanted to try a thumbhole stock, and now that I've got a sore wrist after busting it in the bush I thought I would see if its easier to hold. Its turned out that it hasn't made much difference but at least getting it set up with a load will be a bit of fun. Will probably shoot a deer with it and it will go into the back of the cupboard. I'm aiming to get 2900fps with a 130 grn projectile.

Very nice stock Tahr :)
Very nice all round.
Not a new gun, but shortening + supressing the old 308 seems to have tightened the groups up a tad - shot 12-15mm today with a couple of different loads, down from 20-22mm with the same loads previously. Can't complain.
gun porn aye?

Built as a cheap to run gong and paper rifle.
I'll probably shoot it on Saturday, then sell it minus the PMII and mount, but with the rail, brake, and can.

quickload tells me you should follow the standard procedure for any medium sized hunting cartridge: jam the case full of 2209 with a heavy bullet (in this case a 150, for around about 2800 and change)Quote:
