Try get a low block. Otapua, footy field, Oamaru, mangaroa, mangatainoka 2? Those are helisika . I’ve been into the otapua in August. Nice block can give you some info on it if you decide to go there

Your twist of 8.5-9 will be sweet as. I too have been running them in a 9.5 twist 22 inch barrel and they stabilise just fine

Such a beautiful classic calibre has to be classic Euro glass. Swaro, Zeiss or Kahles would be my pick. 3-9 or 3-10 or some of the more recent 2-10 or 2-12 models would be a good options. I’ve got an...
