nderfel Posted March 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 Yeah I am very happy. I wouldn't have got .308 if we hadn't of been stalking for a good while and got a letter of recommendation from the game keeper who has been taking us out. I think a military background helped with safety and weapons handling and stuff too, potentially anyway. The 308 mark is for the roe we shoot up in Sussex, I originally asked for 243 but the FLO said if I have been shooting 308 all this time I might as well stick with it. First things first it's .22 or 17 hmr depending. The 308 can wait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
