The bayonet is also Yugoslavian so I'll be trying to hunt down a German Bake lite one
Put some new glass on my Edge, Swavo X5 5-25 x 56, awesome scope
Cheers Brads :thumbsup:

Has a little bulge at the bottom of the turret so had to get the angle grinder out lol
Attachment 48966
I thought for a second that you had ground the bottom of the scope! You are not that rough then :-)
Just gently tap the bulge out with a hammer
Fixed it for ya @northdude:DQuote:

It was a package deal, rifle with Talley lightweight rings, Weaver Super slam 2-10, reloading dies, 40 new Hornady brass, all at what i thought was a very fair price. I knew it had some history, but had apparently been sorted.
Well first impressions, is its a neat little thing, being a little different in design etc, with the slotted underside of the fore-end, and the machined out action all to reduce the weight, looks pretty neat too imo.
I wasted no time mounting the scope, and loading up some ammo to test. I had a couple of boxes of the berger 130gr VLD's that i was keen to try, (i just couldnt get them to shoot in my Mod 7 260 rem). Loaded up some test loads, and off to the range.

Being reasonably light, it is quite a lively rifle to shoot and you really need to hang onto it. Its only a 130gr pill doing around 2800, but it must be due to the low weight it sure jumps about.
Still got more fine tuning to do, but its showing some promise....
Attachment 49252
With the high BC of the 130 VLD, even at 2800 fps it still holds 1000 ft lbs to 675 yards, quite unreal for a little case and a 130 gr pill.
Looking forward to the first deer with it now.
That's very cool GWH. Truth is, it's probably close to the ideal all rounder. At least for the NI. And cheap to run, too.
You might get some strange looks at the Fiordland ballot briefing with it, but with the right bullet it would do the job no doubt. :)
But, nah. Owning just one gun would be a bit silly really.
A muffler goes pretty well on their snoz, and doesn't seem to upset the balance.
You can get them in stainless now, with a synthetic stock. I actually prefer my wood blue one though, and yours looks nice too.

p.s. If you lose your magazine, the Savage Axis mag is exactly the same.
Finally got to fit the tube sight onto my Martini Henry 38-55. Loaded some BP rounds and if the weathers fine I'll bang it on the weekend and see if it hits anything. Has a new barrel and bit of work done by someone else:cool:Attachment 49311Attachment 49312Attachment 49313Attachment 49314

A tube sight is basically a tube with a small adjustable apperture you look through and sit the target in the middle of the circle , if that makes sense?
