Thread: Unusual ammo you've come across

Sure is odd looking stuff though. My marlin 795 stabilises it, but cycles it poorly after a mag or two as it gums up the action and the 795 likes clean undies. Brno mod 2 shoots it well enough, cycles fine being a bolt action. Brno 581 shoots accurately out to 50m, but have to single feed it, think the 581 has quite a heavy bolt or some such. It comes in a very very nifty box, great for fumbling around in the dark but no squishing in your pocket.

With a bolt gun, a dialable scope and a drop chart you can ear shoot goats to a surprising distance. 20" barrel and Maximus .22 mag can and it's soooooo sneeky. Ideal for reducing the amount of land that has to be closed when doing pest control.

I would buy 10k+ if another shipment came in, even though I don't use much of it per year even when I'm in NZ
