    Get a Burris Fullfield with ballistic plex off ebay from the states, cracking scopes and a great reticle. As for the Howas, well made, very accurate, heavy though. Love mine!!

    I had a MTC Mamba 4/16x50, it was ok, big, heavy and iffy on higher mag. Sold it and bought a Fullfield 11 from the States (ebay) absolutely cracking scope, miles better.

    He was the nutter who had photos of muzzled matches in his mag? Appeared in one of Ed Reids old videos and wrote some articles for Bull Terrier Times.

    I shoot a Howa 308 without a mod or muzzle break, it has a MTc Mamba on it and is fine. The recoil is not that bad, you do lose sight picture but thats to be expected. Make sure you get decent rings and bases and your scope will be ok, i use Burris Zee rings and Leupold bases. regards

    I own a Howa 308 varmint s/s laminate, cracking piece of kit. They make guns for Weatherby not Remington, the Howa is a lot better than a similarly priced Remmy imo. Very accurate well made rifle, heavy though. Picked mine over a Tikka because the Tikka feels a bit flimsy and toylike to me.

    I used to walk a young bull terrier on a disused rail track, straight and see for miles. A horsey type old bag let her standard poodle run about 200 hundred yards and set about the pup, she did f**k all my dog was on the lead and thought it was great but did not really know what to do thankfully. A month or two later she lets it run over and knock me off the bike as i am excersing the dog, same carry on. Final time the dog is grown and knows whats what and would destroy her daft poodle, i see her about 200 yards away and start shouting to put her dog on the leash, she takes no notice of course

    Very good article in support of more athletic Staffords though, f**k what the RSPCA says anyway.

    I have had 2 english bulls and you could not pay me to feed another, the most stubborn, ignorant useless dogs i have ever known. One of them came from a lad that was trying to breed gameness into them and had very limited success before giving up and keeping pits. Another local dogman that had some famous dogs back in the 80s packed in with pit bulls and kept ebts and miniature ebts, he reckoned the miniatures were a lot more fiery (still useless though). It may well be a different story in other countries but there are better breeds for everything you may want a dog for here.

    Paid about £25v on Ebay for mine, charity is still on British Blades and might be able to get one for you. The blade is 440c, takes a really good edge.

    Whats the finland knife fair up like? I was looking at the very same knife before i opted for the clipper. Is the Benchmade Rant a full tang? all nice knives, but the Rant catches my eye. The handle of the Rant unscrews, cracking knife, razor sharp. think the new version is different
  21. oxo
    Couple of fixed blades, top to bottom Magnum Camp Bowie, Benchmade Rant, Frosts Mora. the Benchmade is a excellent knife, frost great for the price and so is the magnum.

    I have a laminate varmint s/s Howa bought it a month ago (not thumbhole) they have put there prices up now, i paid £750 screwcut for mine in this months Sporting Rifle the thumbhole has a RRP of £740 blued/ £840 s/s. Looked at a T3 lite and it was a bit toy like the stock is flimsy and the mag is plastic. The Howa is a lot more solidly built, but a lot heavier too. you pays your money....

    Hello steve, i am a member at the Mayfair too. chances are the club gun you shot was either a cz or a Brno. Next time you will use a semi auto .22 (either a 10/22 or a 597) and on the last safety lesson you will be using a Marlin 38/357. I have a CZ 452 American and they are great guns. Range wise yards or so for a .22 imo. regards

    Picked up a new howa .308 a couple of weeks ago, not been to the range yet so i cannot tell you how it shoots, looks nice though The scope is a Mamba 4/16 x 50 and seems ok.
