Thread: New 7mm08 Remmington on target

Just recently purchased this beauty.



Got the beauty zeroed in and I have no bipod or range finder so it was just awesome shooting.

First target on the hill



One shot then inspect target

Just guessing 100 metres then fired two more rounds just resting on the quad seat with the rifle.


Pretty happy with that group.So I tryed a longer distance.

Possum trapper joined me at plate shoot. Neckshot cheers for the hunk of steel.

This was my shooting position the plate is on the second hill follow the tyre tracks and you can see it,bit of greyish metal below the hill.


Now the pic zoomed in.


Two shots away and ping ping followed the boom boom and could clearly see the plate move and here the ping with the pelter grade 5 muffs on.


You members are probably thinking what the fark, that plate,its got holes in it. Yes its not as savvy as your hard barstard gong plates but Neckshot figured if i can't hear the ping on the steel it went right through the holes...now thats accurracy right there cheers again Neckshot


This is at the plate looking back to the shooting position

Now same pic just zoomed in a bit and the black gun bag is on the hill.


Very happy with this rifle got a little video footage might get added one day. Possum trapper pinged the plate also and got a little bit of scope eye but the ping at that distance was a buzz for us anyway.


Got it sorted a hunting we will go.

Cool mate, real cool, down docking in the next few weeks ill flick ya txt and well go chase a moose.

That's pretty good

I better call in to confirm that distance with a few shots awesome Dundee,remeber they don't leave much bunny behind those bigger bullets.

good shit

Sweet rig Dundee, nice one mate!

Nice Dundee!

A bugger it's shooting like that Dundee, ... for the tasty critters that is.

A wee clip of possum trapper with the scope kissing his head

Nah I missed the scope eye clip that shot didn't hit his scone bugger

Looks like it's easily shooting "Minute of Deer" Dundee.

Time to get out in the bush with your boys and "Blood It In" in the manner to which it deserves.

Tell Possum Trapper to watch out for the Scope especially when shooting up hill as it gets bloody hard to see anything through your scope when you suddenly have copious amounts of warm blood streaming into your shooting eye.

Cheers

Yea got ya P38 he did git a smack to his scone last night but that wasn't the shot unfortunately I missed the video clip of that.

The one that smacked his scone was the shot that hit the plate and PT had the plate shoot on video but we missed the clip to the head.

Nothing serious just a bump but fark it was funny where I was standing.

What made you choose the Remington over say a tikka t3 or similar?

now that its sighted in, time for some 300yd bunnies/hares
