    Mines a hunter, cant remember exactly but pretty sure it was 350 odd grams worth, definitely significant. more than the weight of the wee vx3 that sits on top. Think i put like 10 grams of foam back...

    Break-open guns very rarely 'shoot loose' but users who slam them shut (rather than closing them normally) are the real problem. Regular cleaning of the joints and faces plus a drop or two of oil...

    None are in the country yet, however some are not far away. Certain calibers will get to us first with the new boy on the block (6.5PRC) coming in a couple months time.

    over the years I've had most 6.5 Cal and now I'm back at the sako.260. The 6.5-06 and the AI version need a 24" barrel to get the most out of them, then I did a 20" 6.5-284 and struggled to get...
