Rabbit Round Least Affected By Wind
let'sshoot replied to let'sshoot's topic in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns
All rabbits I shoot are for eating, so head shots a must. Thanks -
Hi, I'm just pondering with the idea of a round to head shot rabbits up to 100yds which isn't affected by the wind. I have a HMR which does a brilliant job of head shooting rabbits at that range, but it's a bit of a ponce really as its petrified of the wind - so petrified that it stays indoors when even it's just a light breeze outside. It's allergic to the air around us traveling at any slight speed. However I have a 223 which I have been having some issues with, that some of you will recall. I still haven't had time to get different ammo to try in it, or a chance to reload any.

Too true that, can't we setup a group for swapping the 'useless' ammo of one member for the 'useless' ammo of the other? Bullet heads, primers and powder could all be included. There must be a way to make it feasible? I know these components cannot be shipped, but there must be some on here who are local to others. If anyone has a solution to this predicament, count me in. I have some components to swap.

Loaded Magazines, Travelling/cabinet Ect..

Different opinions from different people. Anyone know the actual true answers instead of personal stipulations and interpretations presumably from HO guidelines. Thanks -
Cheers Matt

Any top tips, before I go on an early morning walk? How to remove the silver skin? Soak or not to soak? Thanks

Seeing that crown has given me assurance that the crown and rifling on my cz 223 is pukka. Must get different ammo.

Ireland is different, bunnybuster knows.

New Rifle, First Night Out....
let'sshoot replied to DeerhoundLurcherMan's topic in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns
Optics Warehouse had a Nikon Monarch 3 2.5-10x50 @ £199 2-3 weeks ago. I'd email to ask as they don't put them all on the website -

Not selling either, my new Monarch is sat on top of the .223 which are sat in the cabinet, until I get different ammo. Put it on the back burner for now while life, work, relationships etc take over. I will give it another go eventually. That scope I had for sale was a 2nd Monarch I purchased at the same time and I've since sold it on. -

No not selling it, need to get around to getting different ammo still. Using the HMR at the moment. -
That looks stunning Thanks, any more ideas welcome

E-mail Optics Warehouse and see what they have in. They don't always show everything on the website. I picked up a nice Nikon Monarch 3 2.5-10x50 for £199. It wasn't on the website.
