6mmBR Posted June 30, 2007 Report Share Posted June 30, 2007 Hi Mark I see you've got the bug now What no AR15 I'm dissapointed. Glad to see you getting some action, your old man will have to look out now Catch you soon Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark-taffy Posted June 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2007 hi dave the AR is in bits ,having the barrel threaded ,i think i would have run out of ammo if i took that out . tikka perfomed very good and stoning bunnys out to 200yrds is very addictive ,seems to be alot of rabbits around this year so the old man will be busy reloading mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6mmBR Posted June 30, 2007 Report Share Posted June 30, 2007 I expect he's on the case now we cancelled this mornings range session due to the weather. I expect he's using the time on the reloading bench. Cheers Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6mmBR Posted July 3, 2007 Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 Like Mark said rain didn't stop play but the wind almost did Went out last night with Brian, we managed 3 bunnies but the wind was playing havoc with Brians .223 Luckily I took the 6.5 and had no real problems out to 170yds. The biggest problem was trying to shoot off the tripod sticks and almost getting blown over Cheers Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
