And 63mm mag length, makes the 1:8 223 a more viable option for those long ELD-M

What's the deal with getting one in the country these days? Import permit required and someone to collect it from Auckland airport?

I had a rummage through the safe, shame they don't get much use

SSRNZ 30-204



Kimber 450 Bushmaster, sub & super sonic, https://www.nzhuntingandshooting.co....hmaster-14214/



Rem 700 Titanium 8.6 x 36 Lapua, after dark Pig Rifle, https://www.nzhuntingandshooting.co....7-lapua-52723/



Rem model 7 6.5 Creedmoor, surplus to requirements.



My favourite, Kimber 22 Terminator lightest "go anywhere without even knowing you have it" rifle, https://www.nzhuntingandshooting.co....minator-13685/



I found the AR15 platform with short barrels & the bigger cartridges like 6.5 Grendel, 6.8 SCP, 450 Bushmaster etc to be fantastic in the bush short light, ergonomic, maneuverable and with plenty of punch

What caliber Browning, X boltish?

Just a lil 308 mate. Took a while to find the maple/synthetic stock. I have a hells.canyone in 7mmrm, a tikka t3x in 300wm in a dpt long range chassis, and a tikka t3x in 6.5prc in a mdt tac21 chassis.

@Kiwi Greg I have a home for that SSRNZ if its excess to requirements..
Did you get the alloy or steel action?

IIRC it is a steel action, I would have to check, it has a 1-8 Krieger barrel
