Well, that was fun to watch wasn't it ?

I expecxt te Tikka would handle it too, but I wonder how a blouser or SMLE would function after being jammed full of mud.

Of course, its easy to imagine real life mishaps much more testing than that: a fall on river boulders, drop down an orongorongo waterfall, liquid fuel stove leak etc. It would have been interesting to see a whole of system test, say retaining zero with a simple 6x Schmidt in optilock rings or after a good freeze thaw cycle, wipedown with WD40 and a bit of rattling around in the tray of a quad with steel gong targets.

It was a rifle test, not a scope test.
