    If you're going to do all your shooting within 200m or so, 3-9x40 is perfectly fine (and more magnification than you really need). Instead of going for more zoom, perhaps go for a lower zoom, but...

    6x47 liked post by 10-Ring On thread : Cleaning rods vs bore snakes
    I don't use boresnakes. They get dirty and fouled quickly and unless you're chucking them in with the washing after a couple of uses they're depositing crud on the bore. I have a four piece rod for...

    I have never used a bore snake, but I have seen a pull through break at the start of a trip. If going hunting I take a length of curtain rod .... the flexible plastic coated stuff that you can poke...

    First port of call should be the company that fitted it and or the company that made/ supplied the suppressor, they should be able to advise you.

    How often was the suppressor checked for tightness during that 30 - 40 rounds being fired?...if suppressor not aligned with bore then i would have thought every shot would hit it.

    6x47 liked post by gundoc On thread : .22lr rifle sighting questions
    Only clean the barrels of .22 rifles if they have dirt, dust, snow etc. in them. The bullets have a wax coating which protects the bore and it builds up to a stable level where the rifle remains...
