    Give the 17wsm time to curl up and die more like it, it had big shoes to fill after all the hohar that was made about it, but seems to have underwelmed since its release. Mostly due to ammo not being...

    The Burris rings with the inserts are good, plenty of folk around have good experiences with them.

    falconhell liked post by Beetroot On thread : new rifle
    If it's purely for varmints, eg. goats and smaller, I'd go for a .204 Ruger or 223. 204 is an awesome round, turns varmint inside out. With less noise, barrel wear and is cheaper to reload than...

    There is a guy in Auckland called Landrover Spares, I'd try there. But I reckon your best bet is to get something from the UK (as that is what the Landrover Spares guy will do). You've got...

    The groups didn't matter at what time I shot them, the barrel didn't get particularly warm anyway. Used the exact se ammo, bipod and rear reat that I have always used. Ill clean it, re set the...

    steven liked post by Beetroot On thread : .222 and AR2208
    I'm trying to develop a load for 75gr Amax's in my 223 with 2208. 2208 is the same as Varget which is better suited for heavier bullets in 223 (or 222), I was getting between 2750 and 2850 with...

    Wonder why they went for 6.5 Creedmore over 260 Rem?

    Kiwi Greg liked post by Beetroot On thread : Silencer threads
    I WOULD have liked a CTR in .260 Rem, but the 20" barrel length puts me off buying one, would rather go for a Super Varmint. Wish that the Tactical came in .260 like the CTR.

    veitnamcam liked post by Beetroot On thread : Why does everyone seem to be getting out of 6.5x47L?
    I's guess folk liked that you could get Lapua brass for it and that it was new and sexy. Now that you can get 260 Lapua brass and get a bit more performance out of a similar cartridge and it comes...

    Hunt4life liked post by Beetroot On thread : 257 roberts
    I don't really see the point of 25cal guns, seems like a random projectile size that no companies seem bothered about. 2506 obviously has a bit of a following and is readily available in new guns,...
