    I was intrigued so googled HN 2508. It’s either a reference to a model train https://reynaulds.com/products/Arnold/HN2508.aspx or the 0.25 ‘souper” which sounded pretty interesting.

    Have to admit been using a 308 lately, bit more reach & VX5, ammo is available. Not as fit as I used to be and eyesight not so sharp either!

    Heineken's good, tastes the same around the world, otherwise Speights.

    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
