MrCetrizine Posted February 7, 2015 Report Posted February 7, 2015 As i've injured my leg and can't go out to play, I got bored and decided to photograph my current collection. A new ISSF spec .22 target rifle and a .308 AI to be added this year if my variation ever comes back. Click the image for a higher resolution (10MB) version.
MrCetrizine Posted February 7, 2015 Author Report Posted February 7, 2015 ....But I don't understand the need to post pictures of all one's firearms, nor the practice of listing them under your name and the town you are from.~Andrew It's interesting to see what other people have. It's not my name, it's the pills I have to take pretty much all the time. It's simply the closest postal town as per the selling section rules.
pengo Posted February 7, 2015 Report Posted February 7, 2015 Loving the Tikka, Mr. C. I've got the very same myself and I wondered if you can tell me which model of monopod you have on it and where did you get it from, please? Cheers. Paul
brown dog Posted February 7, 2015 Report Posted February 7, 2015 Cool pic reminds me of the style of the weapons pages in the Falklands War magazine collection I gathered at school.

MrCetrizine Posted June 15, 2015 Author Report Posted June 15, 2015 .300 AAC Blackout was developed by Advanced Armament Corporation for the US military to provide a cartridge that could deliver similar muzzle energy to the 7.62x39mm used in the AK47 but in the AR15 platform. It is essentially a .223 case cut down to 35mm and necked to .308 All you need to do to an AR15 is change the barrel. It uses a standard .223 bolt carrier group and magazines. It can be loaded for both subsonic and supersonic applications and in a semi or full auto rifle, requires no change in gas settings to switch between the two. I chose it because it was different and seemed like fun. It's a great plinking round. Cheap to run and fairly accurate at short range. I have a friend who now uses a bolt action .300 AAC exclusively with subsonics for foxing. They are very quiet and a 220gn bullet pretty much guarantees a quick humane kill.
English Posted June 16, 2015 Report Posted June 16, 2015 Thanks for the replies, I had an interesting evening tonight looking at more about this on u-tube looks like it has gained a following in the USA. Thanks for sharing
