    Been to the range this morning testing a mates rifle.

    So took my little model 7 223 to play with while his cooled between groups.

    It's a little honey.



    This is @400 yards



    Lots of fun and great practice.

    Nice! Your SAUM is a heavy hua in comparison! Is that a McMillian stock on it?

    Lol that S&B looks like night vision. They are huge. Is that the new short version?
    Had a look through one the other day, holy shit they are a nice piece of glass, resolution is amazing.

    Yes the 2 Stug stocks pick up like toy guns by comparison...the S&B isn't a lightweight like the Swaro's.
