    When you go to the super market, do you ask the butcher "where is the 3yr old ram ......." or "can you show me where the old stag meat is please ...." You want young and tasty. Goat is the same. ...

    Have you considered a 6.5 Creedmore? Gives the advantage of a short action but gives up little in the form of practical down range performance over the longer .260's

    Dundee liked post by hotbarrels On thread : What little pesties did you bowl over today?
    Did a rabbit shoot over three afternoons from Boxing day and shot 1,140 between two of us. Lots of young ones about, making up probably 80% of what we shot.

    I've got a mate who runs refined (filtered and centrifuged) auto transmission fluid in a Nissan turbo. Apparently viscosity is a key issue. If he is using other oils he blends it with diesel.

    Keep an eye on the weights of the rifles you are considering. If you intend to carry it all day, consider something around the 6lb bare. If you are range shooting then some of them are up over 8.5lb.
