Bet the 22-250 will be coming home with you I haven’t put in for the variation yet but at the minute I keep going back to the 22-250 but we will see, I know the lad in the shop and he has a way of convincing me to buy something I have no need for, he was trying to sell me a 30-06 a few weeks back that someone had put in for a .308, it was mint apparently and would look nice in my cabinet and he was showing me a lovely 6.5 creedmoor, again a rifle I have no use for at the minute 6.5x55 is a very nice rifle, bit more punch than the.243, ideal for the fallow 1 Quote Link to post

Alsone 789 Posted December 5, 2019 Report Share Posted December 5, 2019 Don't they look cute when they're sleeping. You should send the bottom photo into the Countryfile Photo Calendar Competition, make a great one for next December. Just have to say you left some holly on the AT and came back to find them all cuddled up. 1 4 Quote Link to post
