    Cool just thought it might have been with the fern on it.
    Most sponsors are too tight for one of those anyway.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Allows the user to be a little bit sloppy on a mag change. They work very well.

    Wot Towley said Ryan. It is a failing eyesight compensator.

    Bought two Walther LGR's that came my way.
    Beautifully crafted and superbly accurate.

    My latest rifle is a Howa Varminter in 6.5 Creedmoor in a Boyds laminate stock. It wears a Bushnell Elite Tactical 6-24x50 FFP MRAD with the G2DMR reticle. I've bedded the recoil lug and tang, lapped the bolt lugs, fitted two piece 20MOA bases and put a DPT over-barrel suppressor on it. Shoots 143gr ELD-X on 42.4gr AR2209 in Lapua SR brass, MV of 2,730fps. Total weight with bipod and full mag is 13lbs.

    After initial load development, sighting in and drop testing the loads and scope out to 600m, I took this rifle up the hill and nailed a mob of goats between 404m and 535m. Pretty happy with that. Since then it's been out a couple of times for pre-roar red spiker clean ups, which the ELD-X flattens with a shoulder shot, furthest so far was ranged at 598m... 48 clicks up and down he went. Very efficient and accurate medium range killer, looking at the energy it should expand the ELD-X properly out to 700m which is about the limit for deer with this rig.

    They are steel, very low, don't know the make. I've carried them around in parts box for years and years. With the 20MOA bases I needed properly low "low" rings, all the four screw tactical stuff I've seen so far is too high.

    With the overall weight and relative low recoil, I'm hoping the rings stay put, we'll see. If not, they'll get upgraded, to what I don't know.
