Cheers. Crappy old beat-up Panasonic Lumix FZ100. Can't bring myself to replace it until it finally dies...

Nice one Gimp, 140 Amax? What sort of tripod do you use? Seems nice and solid, I'm looking for a new one now sick of my old cheapy sending the camera out of focus in the wind.

That video has sold me on the 260. I am always slightly put off by something I cant just go get ammo for incase i run out or forget it. Having that much killing power at that range, with a medium velocity bullet out of a short action is a huge turn on.

More about the shot placement than the cartridge.

Nah it's all good, just only take it when I'm walking a long way and want to go really light. The macpac is more hardwearing

Yeah, 140 amax. I use a reasonably cheap Slik. I think it's a Sprint Mini II or something. 780 grams though!

This is what I use. 380 grms (470grms with the quick detach head I have on mine). Excellent.
