very good condition. small mark on front scope tube. see picture... cant notice it to much. and when mounts are on cant see it. great scope for target or vermin fox. superb in day or under lamp imo the best scope you can get sub £1000 pound range. 25 mm tube so lovely and light. £575 or £570 picked up in person from worcester.

had a nice evening the other day down on the seven not far from where i live. fished for a couple of hours on feeder with a mate. after ground bait pellet mix in the feeder. ten chucks then the swim was left for 50 mins for the fish to feed . we then cast in with pellet for hook bait. and in a instant the 1st bream of the night fell. we had a couple more on and off. but it was the barbel we had come for. anyway it went shy for 20 mins. which imo is a good sign that hopefully the barbel had moved in on the bait. over the next hour we had 3 good barbel. not monsters but a good couple of

see thats the trouble with a shorter barrel and factory ammo. if you reloaded your own you could make that difference up fairly easy with a faster burning powder

Legend is better. The older model is better not the ones made in china

A Yes they are pricey but worth it if you do alot of foxing. I have the firestorm its superb. A friend of mine brings them into the country. He will beat any price over here. And even supply them with a great number of calls for uk wildlife.

heads up if your looking for gunsmith work.
jamie g posted a topic in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns
hi guys a mate of mine as had a nightmare with some rife work. he isnt a member on here so i guessed i would post it up. so all you guys on here don't get ripped off if your looking for some work done on a rifle these are his words off a different forum. Ok - The full story... This is not just sour grapes at the service and quality of work - but is a genuine safety concern. Sept 2011 - Me and my shooting pal, asked Rhino Rifles to rebarrel two Tikka 595 rifles in 204 R. ( a relatively simple job one would think for a rifle smith ) Dispite promising taking about 6 - 9 -
Effects of a .223 on steel plate.
jamie g replied to Rhodey's topic in Rimfire, Centrefire & Shotguns
my mate has a steel target around the same thickness as that. we shot it at 100 yards and 200 yards. him with his 223 and me with a 22/250. the 223 didnt go through at 100 or 200. the 22/250 punched a hole in it on every shot at 100 and 200 yards using factory sako gameheads -
223 for sure.
-
it will soon die away unless you reload. the killer over here is the price of factory ammo for it. gun shops over here really like to over charge for the ammo.

1st off you need permission letter to shoot them, from he land owner etc... as the firearms dept will want that before granting you a deer rifle. my mate has shot a couple with his 243 no problem. as long as you use the right bullet its more then up to the job. but some people like a bigger calibre though say 25/06 or 270 simple reason it gives you more knock down power and the choice to use heavier bullets. ive just sold a 270 and going to get a 6mm of some sort.as it suites my needs better here we only have munty and roe. if i had land with fallow on though I would have kept the 270

[ thread can be changed to suite your rifle if interested in the mod] the mod was had new last year and has done 320 rounds if that. the ase cqbmods really are a superb bit of kit. there £300 to £320 ! new in most gun shops. looking for £200 picked up. can post to rfd at buyers cost. please note if picked up your need a slot on your ticket.
