    The best way to check a barrel is "munted" is clean it and shoot it. Some barrels look ptistine but shoot like shit. Others look like shit but shoot very well.

    If in doubt, I'd get the -11. You can always unzip it, but you can't make the -8 warmer when the mercury drops. (Or, like 199p says, carry a liner to boost the -8 bag when needed. The silk ones...

    This. VX-Freedom. My opinion: skip anything with dials, keep it simple. Get some good mounts (Talley) and get someone you trust to help you mount the scope.

    Almost sounds as if you had the blade the wrong way round on the Kenwood. I’ve got the exact same model and it’s a beast, plows through everything with no difficulty.

    Parrie ducks are a game bird so require a game license, in season and a shotgun.

    Well , I received an answer from FSA regarding this today. Brief, but an answer. Copied below. Hi, Thank you for your query. There is no provision for either of those rumours in the Act. A...

    Tight behind the shoulder/crease is my preferred shot with the .223. I guess you are meaning too far back and low where the green stuff starts?

    People don't seem to understand that the FSA can't "rule" anything. It's all in the Arms Act. Everything you want to know has already been written down in law and you can freely look it up. ...

    Has anyone asked the FSA for a ruling so its in writing? Without that its all speculation.
