    What dreams are made of!!!
    I got a call last Thursday night from my local cop shop, the news that i have been awaiting and yet dreading to hear...how would the application for a second .308 rifle go down....GRANTED :D
    Hope to pick up my nice new Steyr Scout this Saturday.....Went down to my local gun shop in Strabane, quick drive over the border for me, and put a deposit on a new .22lr rifle, a CZ 452FS...now i sold a .22 hornet around 4 months ago, so im getting that cert amended for the .22lr, just waiting for it to be delivered to collect it :)
    Now at this point i was fairly happy with myself, when yesterday me and my 'wee' brother went and bought a CZ550 Fullstock in .243 for 'him' and 'me'....One week, 3 rifles.....Oh Happy Days :D
    Yours with a HUGE smile,
    Mac Tire

    You lucky fecker.

    Any reason why you and the bro went for a full stocked .243?

    Iv'e always liked full stocked rifles but the bro isn't as mad on them...but i managed to convert him, he wants to get a .308 in the future but i told him that the deal that we were getting on this was not going to be beat, so we went for it...Its fairly short and light so it will be a fantastic stalking rifle...We will be using it on Red's and Sika's but with a bit of fiddling we will be using it on greys and foxes with a lighter load....
    In the future i would like to get the stock carved with Deer Insignias (images) and the like......
    Plus its the bigger brother of the .22lr i bought, wouldn't want it getting lonely! :D

    Mac,

    Please make sure to put on a Band-Aid plaster, instead of jogger's nipple you'll have shooter's finger!

    ENJOY!!!


    :D:D

    Apart from looking fantastic, the full-stocked rifles apparently are great rifles, especially in cover, as they're really well balanced and quick handling. Good call. I want one. Yours in envy...
