Thread: Gun Porn, show off your new toys

Yeah time will tell the magpie didn't like it that's for sure, hardly an exhaustive test though. Should get out for an evening shoot on the ducks mid week and on the clays this Saturday. It does take a bit of getting used to as they are vey light and it's easy to over lead or we bit shakey on target.

Nothing flash - Howa 1500 in .308 Win. Shoots every ammo that I have tried very straight. The thermal scope has three "profiles" (Weapon Selection) so I've set it up for standard and sub sonic ammo. Just installed the adjustable cheek rest (Matthews Fabrication) to obtain correct eye relief.

If you know anyone in Southland with pigs or deer on winter crops (private land) I am keen to get out !

Put a few rounds through the bergara today. Shows promise. Shoots factory corlokt good so they will be the go to bush load. Took a few rounds to settle but was shooting well by the end.

Good stock design with low perceived Recoil, pussy cat to shoot.

Red dot is going to go I think. Will replace it with a lightweight scope. Still managed to shoot some OK groups at a hundy with it though(rh target is from seated position)

Couple new levers for me, sold the .243 BLR in NZ, and found one in .358 win takedown, the next day in my hometown of Fort Mac, in Canada, fellow held it for me, for six weeks, included 8 boxes of ammo, bargain at $1200.
Second is a 1895 Winchester in .270 win, just got it last week, unfired still unwrapped in box, Half the price, of a new one, I was looking at, score,

Got skinner sights, on order for both, sorted for heavy hitters in leavers now,

weee that 358 BLR!

@southernman that 1895 looks really good. Didn't realise they were making them again.

Just picked it up yesterday.

Bought a new Beretta Silver Pigeon 686 before duck shooting.



First O/U I have bought myself, enjoying shooting it on clays and ducks.

I know I posted this here the other day but I haven't even fired it yet, I dropped it straight to Gunworks for some love in the form of Talleys ex low rings and a muzzle brake.
Can't wait to do some load development.
Details:
Sako a7
270WSM
Leupold vx3 4.5-14x40 CDS zero stop
Talleys ex low light weight rings
Gunworks 3 port muzzle brake

The M16A1 clone is relatively new. Still haven't taken it to the range to shoot.

Fantastic analogy.
