Well in that case you would be using the Sa80 because that's available,funnily enough because that's the current issue to the UK military.

How can u say you would rather have the SLR over the Sa80 when you have zero experience with the Sa80? 😂😂

I was serving when the Sa80 replaced the SLR and yes as you say the A1 had some teething problems. HK carried out the modifications and the A2 was much improved,the weapon system has just had a major overhaul and the A3 is now in service. I'm Still serving and use the weapon system pretty often and have to say I've never had a problem with it,its robust,accurate and reliable. but dont, bad workmen blame there tools? When u go out shooting and miss your intended target is the gun at fault or you? And as for your sweeping statement above,do you believe everything your mates tell you down the pub,because it doesn't sound like your qualified to say it's a "piece of **** only good for the bin" when you have no personal hands on experience.

Beware of the 3lb ballistic penetrating hammer of his.😂😂👍

Any townie moved into the area lately? I reckon u could have interrupted there salmon and scrambled egg brunch lol

Jeez, I bet you even dream about ballistic penetration,do u ever wake up sweating ?

Thanks for that,I asked because I knew you would have the answer,and your the only ballistics expert I know.

It had a lot to do with the move from 7.62 to 5.56 apart from the reasons mentioned in your post,it was deemed more effective to engage with the smaller less fatal round,injure the enemy and create a casualty that would need carrying from the battlefield therefore reducing the numbers shooting at you.If shot with the 7.62 in majority of cases they would not survive so no need to stretcher off,just bodybag on endex

If I hit u with a 6lb lump hammer,or a 3lb lump hammer what's gonna hurt you more?

So working on your above statement The British military stopped using the 7.62 round in favour of a smaller calibre of 5.56 If hit with the 7.62 in most cases it was lights out but with the smaller calibre of 5.56 more injurys were inflicted.This meant it took 2 to 4 men to carry the casualty off the battlefield and take them out of the game for a while. I don't get how you think a smaller calibre has more knock down power at the receiving end over a larger calibre. Maybe I'm missing something?I'm sure you'll be along shortly with the answer.

Loads of Buzzards and Red kites around us,population has expoded in the last few years. Other day I counted 7 Badgers dead at the roadside all within a mile stretch.

Problem with .410 carts they are quite tight in the barrel once fired ejectors on some guns have problems ejecting them.

That voice is as irritating as nails on a chalkboard,I'm depressed after listening to it😎 Each to their own,but it's not for me💂‍♂️

💂‍♂️Cracking pics as always mate,well done

Not if Mama shops in Iceland lol

Shooting and smoking pot ain't a good mix🤣

Went in for retest yesterday,H1 in both ears,happy days.

Must agree with Motty I've shot loads of corvids over the last year and some at good distance and 7.5 shot work for me.

Went for an audio last week,got to be retested in 14 days,slight variation in left ear.Always had H1 results but now they feed the readings into the system and any variation throws out a retest,so hopefully the next test is H1.

Dremmel💂‍♂️ How much you remove depends on your pain threshold 🤣

Exactly mate,and that's my point🤣💂‍♂️

The blow Smoke out of each other's ***** thread 🤣💂‍♂️
