    I've made a series of videos from load development to hunting various species.

    I hope you enjoy!
    Great videos !

    What is the barrel length and twist rate of your rifle - .308 subsonic ?

    Thanks

    Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.

    Thanks for your support!
    The twist is 1:12 (so I'm rapt these short heavy projectiles stabilise)
    The barrel is 15"
