its a 22" barrel end of ...,you like the stock on the remmi and vtr or what ever its called over a sako .
Yes I do. it does as required.
You don't have to shoot it. I do.
It does what i want it to do.
i am not a Professional stalker like yourself so I only fire it a few times a year and it is sub 1/2" @100
So if I got a better scope and and mounts as part of a trade I was pleased.
My .223 is my most used. Just in from busting a few bunnies and a grey crow.
I might toy around with my VTR during the summer for the craic.
Or i might not.
Or I might buy another rifle when i get my mid year bonus, stranger things have happened:D:D
Mabe I'll buy a sauer or Blaser, That could be another thread though0 -
Tac relax , I am far from following you, :rolleyes: I just find it hard to on topic when i hear crap ,(not aimed at you)Tackleberrywho wrote: »pat58
Are you obsessed with following my posts?
Every post I make you have some school boy snide remark.
Particularly when you do not know me or my circumstances.
Can you keep your comments on thread here?
,Like i said before its only my opinion, VTR stock over a 75, I no what 99% of the people that i know would prefer , The other 1% are just a bit tick, As for the .223 we all had to start some ware , :rolleyes:
1/2 " @ 100 yards is good going for a .223 keep practicing you will get there,
Little tip try not to restrict your self to 100 yards ,Try a few groups a bit further out 0 -

I have read the above line and still can not truly understand the diction. ,Like i said before its only my opinion, VTR stock over a 75, I no what 99% of the people that i know would prefer , The other 1% are just a bit tick, As for the .223 we all had to start some ware SomeWHERE I think you mean, :rolleyes:

100 yards is the standard that most people 99% quantify a Hunting/Varmint rifle on.
Below my group 300 metres .223.
I never restrict myself I am well below 1/2 " @100. Not bad @ 300 either for an armature.
If we were getting into symantics I prefer neither stock(Sako or Remington), I will get a stock custom build this year, Colour Green, and raised cheekpiece on the right not left to suit my needs. Not that that has anything to do with anything. The sako was also rusting even though it was supposed to be an all weather model.(probably a bell and Carlson retro fit job or maybe a full custom Edi Job
So after spending a lot on the SAKO in the first place I said I'd get rid before it got worse. Rust on an all weather firearm was not ok for me.
In case you failed to read my posts correctly I have 2 Remington 700's.
You keep commenting about how bad a .223 is yet 99% of the country would say, there design brief fulfills most categories in it's class rather well.
But this is very off topic as you insist on trying to make this personal.
Remington SPS or Tikka T3. I believe Mcbride in athlone is selling a VSSF II for €1200. So the OP might be interested.
Add in Shooters Digest I flicked through yesterday.0 -

Bout that, i did not have a tape so I used a €2 what size is a €2? I still have no tape ruler or vernier to hand
I only use factory ammo. if and when the latter is available I may go that route, but until then (other than the price) I am very happy with Hornady0 -
Its about 1.0125 ";).Close enough to an inch ,i guess:rolleyes:.Thats a rabbits head all day long.:DTackleberrywho wrote: »Bout that, i did not have a tape so I used a €2 what size is a €2? I still have no tape ruler or vernier to hand

Ah it does me, very happy with the hit rate over the last few weeks and tweaks
Might do the .308 Remington for the laugh now.
It's accurate enough, but I love an engineering challenge 0 -

JW, would you advise a young fella wanting a fox rifle to get a .270? Even you would have to say no there are more appropiate calibres?
You are alleging I am unsafe with firearms here, I threat all firearms with respect from air rifle to .30 cal's
you are also inferring a .270 is a fine starting rifle by association of your point to the reference text.
You may like to think I speak bullshine, you are entitled to your opinions.
I am entitled to have an opinion. My opinion is; if my brother, cousin, friend or stranger asked me for a good foxing/bunnie round I'd say .223 .204 .220swift or .17hmr
See you are back talking bullshine tac ,;) The same safety requirements are involved with a .270 as any other caliber , So by you making a false statement like you did is totally unwanted:eek:, You keep using words like young fella and impressionable ,I have a good few friends that use the .270 as a good all round caliber ,;) I would not hesitate to recommend the .270 as a great all rounder , Because anybody i shoot with including as you call them young fellas are very safety minded at all times ,(dont know what kind of goons you shoot with)
Please think before you post tac, This is not having a go at you ,Its because respect is required for all caliber sizes, So if you could edit your post it would be great as a responsible firearms holder,0 -
