And lastly light as possible, where they happier spend a fair amount cutting pieces off, changing stocks, fluting barrels on perfectly fine rifles to have their bush pig.
    Never really did understand it, I kind of get why, but at the same time I do wonder if people just like spending money for the sake of it.
    All you need is a standard 22inch 243, factory 100gr ammo and you got the super bush pig Works darn well, no money spending, never had a issue with weight, length of barerll or performance in tight bush, it works. Even my back up 308 is 24 inch, never thought once about chopping it as never worried me at all about the extra length.....but that's just me , I just bushstalk with what works for me, and the mighty 243 rat rifle works a treat
    So it wasn't you who put up a wish list I saw in another thread then?
