    I had a few lads ask what the recoil is like for my 300 wm....so I put together some footage off my phone whilst i was zeroing it in on sunday...my buddy with me was zeroing in a 300 rem ultra mag with out a muzzle break, that had some kick..I edited this at 1/2 speed

    there a gud job ,iv one for my 270 cant say there is any recoil.

    the blast takes a little getting used to , use it on dry clay or sand it will get it every where .

    I have no blast holes in the bottom side of the break so its only blasting left and right and out the top so nowt dirt is getting kicked up from the bottom...;)

    That video won't play on either of my computers for some reason. Odd. Ah well, hopefully see the thing in action down in the Midlands at some point. Last week of the season, so hope you get a chance to blood it. (Same as my Sako)

    Weird, it works on the home computer now. (Hamsters might have been in the gym) That looks very comfortable. Would be interested in seeing how it is with 180gr loads and no break for comparison. I hope you have a decent story to tell about it tonight.

    Was out target shooting today, hoping to whack a few crows for the farmer but there was nothing landing. Groups were good, 1/2" to 1" at a hundred yards, but I popped into one of my permissions today and he said there are some deer fairly consistently in one of his fields, so I'll have a yomp over there tomorrow afternoon after I shoot a match in UCD, so I'll hopefully have a shot tomorrow, close the season up nicely. Considering blowing off college on monday if I don't luck out tomorrow.
