Thread: A Midweek quicky

Nice looking little rifle there Chur Bay. Can you answer me a few questions.

1) Do you find that the rifle is hard to carry thru the bush?? Ie does it get caught up on the grip or the butt lever (?)

2) How many animals have you shot with it? Do you think a 223 is a good choice in regard to recoil v knock down power??

3) And the aim point. I've never used one. Is it good for the bush?? How do you adjust them to sight them in?

Thanks

light. 2.6 kg.
the butt end of the stock gets caught up on it a bit.
Aimpoint is very good, just no magnification. Good for under 100m
I've shot 3 deer with this set up and a goat.
223 has pros and cons.
No recoil. a bit limited in energy.
Shot placement is key I guess.
