Baikal single shot .223

[tom1cameron 1]

I appreciate this is not a premium rifle...but I am contemplating getting one of these for 50- yard range "occassional" roe cull.

 

The range is set by the terrain and the number of deer per year will unlikely exceed 5........so a £280 new gun sounds ideal.

 

Just awaiting the info on barrel twist rates from York guns but wondered if anyone else has or has used one?

 

Best wishes

Trouble is if you need a quick follow up shot.

you owe it too the animal.

i know people who shoot single(break barrel) rifles and they are very fast with practice. a second shot bullet in a slip on the hand guard speeds things up. you do lose sight of your quarry which can make the differance.

light rifles good for stalking. i don't know how the baikel shoot as a rule.

 

for the same money you could maybe get a used rifle of better quality,they are seldom SHOT dead.tried gun trader?
