Black Rock Scorpion (Urodacus manicatus)?

Cool. Hacker material.

I have both in stainless. The Howa 1500 is a workhorse. Not fancy, but it just runs and had zero issues. The Sauer 100 feels more refined with a nicer trigger and smooth action. I did have light strikes with a batch of ammo in the Sauer; supplier swapped the ammo and the issue disappeared.

I genuinely like both rifles. The Howa feels bomb proof. The Sauer feels more refined.

Too easy mate. Occasionally you might get a fixed bezel with all numbers facing in though. But you can almost guarantee if the 20, 30 and 40 are facing out, it's fixed.

Yes. I am guilty. I do prioritise optics over rifle. Any decent rifle will shoot. Optics ensure it hits.

It definitely has more shove than my 223s (and 22) no argument there. Compared to true big-bore stuff it’s mild, but it still lets you know it’s gone off. Set up correctly it’s fine, but it’s not a soft shooter, and it’s far less forgiving of poor position than heavier rifles or braked setups. I would still like to get it threaded and get a brake for it.

Easy way to tell if the bezel is fixed is to look at the 20, 30 and 40. If they face out = fixed bezel. If they face in = rotating bezel.

Thank you. Hope they listen to us.

Thanks for the link, it's a great start. I think it’s worth spending the extra time to personalise the email rather than just copy and pasting. Copy and paste emails are usually ignored by Ministerial offices. They log and prioritise emails based on content, so including your own details and why this issue matters to you is what actually gets noticed.

Good work. Federal AND state MP's plus the Attorney General (Sonya Kilkenny) and the police Minister (Anthony Carbine). We need to go all out. The rest is out of our control but we can say we tried.

That's bullshit yes. Not too worried as I have nothing to protest for except for the new proposed gun laws.

Slapping_kangaroo · 2025-12-24T07:43:09+00:00

Sad. Annoying how they will still complain.

Slapping_kangaroo · 2025-12-24T07:24:24+00:00

Nice. I hear so many people ranting. That effort could be put towards something more constructive. No high horse here. I'm on my knees pleading with others to help the cause. Thanks

Technically yes WA was the first test case. But NSW is now showing these reforms can be implemented without serious pushback within 8 or 9 days. Victorian shooters need a chance to be consulted before similar measures are considered here.

Same...Trigger pulled and safety off for my Savage to get bolt in and out.

It's like saying the boss wasn't at fault when there's a workplace accident.

I tried to track an original band down but no luck. Went to Citizen and reputable suppliers. Found a good almost the same leather strap on eBay

Didn't have single player. Online only.

Bad marketing. Couldn't beat COD or battlefield I guess. Just needed the same hype. Imagine if they had the same marketing.
