    Hi all i just read this on a site www.border-barrels.com about 'SHOOTING IN' A BARREL do any of you do this on your new gun or barrels or is it done from the factory do you think this needs to be done or not? This is what they do 'SHOOTING IN' A BARREL There is much discussion about 'shooting in' a barrel. Everybody seems to have their own way of doing it, so this is a brief monograph about how we do it. But first, a few words on why 'shooting in' a barrel is necessary. No matter how well lapped or how finely finished the internal surface of the barrel is, the first few bullets

    Sorry for not getting back to ye lads but the net is down here at the minute so using someone elses connection. i am using a tikka M595 s/s .243. leupold 6.5x20 LR/T M1. arcpest, i also use the lightforce range of lance and striker the striker was used on this night, i'm not here to shit ye lads but i've been practising for years to get out to these ranges. i practise by shooting clays with the rifle at set distances out to about 450 yards though i don't think i'll reach this range at night. i'm always over cautious with long range shots. but i had a large hill for a backstop leading to

    Hi arcpest, Whats the grouping like on your Tikka at 100 mts? I've got a Tikka T3 Lite s/s 1-8 and so far i can't get it to group at 100 mts looks more like i've used a shotgun!! I'm going to try some 75 grain ammo to see if i get on any better (69 brain Sierra's aren't doing it). Hi chap not tried it on the range yet still savinfg some pennies for the scope and Tikka mounts i have some 55 grain and 62 grain bullets to try as soon as im done ill let you know how it went arcpest

    Thanks chap il look at the falcon menace as for the IR im leaning towards no having it ive not needed it upto now and only a year warranty arcpest
  23. arcpest
    I will do chap as im target shooting with mine as well ill let you know how it is at 600m as for foxes ill probably zero at 100m as its less than an inch between 50 to 150 and we can usualy get within this range to our quarry arcpest

    i fancy one of those on my .222 when i get it. they come recommended from a few people i know who also use them for foxes. they are £179 on litt's website. this is where ill probably get my rimfire so ill buy a scope there the same time and i usually get a good price if you buy a few things at a time. thanks ss06 My mind is made up im getting one all i have to decide now is do i get an Illuminated one or not! arcpest
  25. arcpest
    mate of mine has one on his 223 with no problems. is it for fox or targets please. Hi its for both which is why i was looking at the 6-24xmag one
