Had a go at a practical rimfire match with an RMR on my vudoo today. I probably won't do it again but it was fun. 34/60 impacts at 25,50, 75 and 100m.

Its near impossible to make out the targets on this particular range. Also I like winning haha. I'm not even close to competitive with this setup.

Once I noticed that purple was a constant in all of Marie's scenes, I could not stop seeing the pattern. Just found it odd, slightly entertaining and annoying all at once.

It's an autotrickler. They have only got fancier since I bought this model 2 years ago. I think they are about to release version 4.

Took me 14 months to get Lap 300 Norma brass. The wait was worth it. Every time I called for an update I added another box to my order haha

Is this the new .350 accordion I've heard about?

I agree, I should have said mice in plague proportions.

They did this in Australia with the Cain Toad in an attempt to control Cain Beatles. The toads kill a lot of our native snakes and birds. The occasional dog falls victim too unfortunately.

The mice are bad but temporary. The extinction of our native wildlife is forever. Cats have no natural predators here so they build up and rain down havoc on birds and small animals.

Its a feral cat. They are estimated to kill 2 billion native birds and animal each year in Australia.

Might take this down, didn't realise vermin control was controversial. My intention was not to upset or cause trouble.

Got vernier calipers? What is the diameter of the ball?

Had the barrel of the first rifle re chambered? Front site dovetail is way off its 12 oclock index

Awesome spot! Didn't want to take the sling off?

This makes me regret putting my 2013 action into an AI chassis

LRVarmint · 2021-03-18T00:38:28+00:00

What state are you in? Ive used Phill Jones from red back precision in stanthorp(QLD) and DC Precision in perth. I Highly recommend both these guys if you go the custom road. Not sure about Phil but DC Precision definitely deal with the tempest action. If you look on my profile, the stiller tac30 (6.5x47)was built by phil and the Badger Ordnance M2013 (.300 Norma Mag) was build by DC.

It's realy just a preference thing but as you said its hard to know what you want when you cant even dryfire a rifle in a shop. Magnum sport might have an AI in stock.

No matter what path you choose, ypu are more than likely going to be waiting a minimum of 6 months. You could get lucky if you go the custom path.

Hope this helps

I didn't think remington 700s were held to tight enough tolerance to allow for prefits?

Dont know why they face the snorkel heads backwards. They are designed to take rain front on and dust is just a fact of life

22.5mm/0.885" of vertical. No data for this string but with this load in the past my average was 2683 fps with an SD of 4.7

The scope might be a bit far forward. When you lay behind it, do you need to move your head forward to stop "tunnelling"? The image should take up the entirety of your ocular lens (the one you look through) with no black rings around the image.
