tiestomac 0 Posted March 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 Stop, ive 300 spent cartridges, would give me something to do on the off season although i dont know if i'd have the patience for it! Even just the prices they charge in the States, Impoters must be making €/£ 10+ per box on cetrefire ammo like the swift! Thought they were cheaper than that in the UK though! Quote Link to post
Deker 3,477 Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 Whilst EVERY calibre has a use, I can't help thinking this is past it's sell by! Quote Link to post
tiestomac 0 Posted March 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Each to their own i suppose decker but when you only get a chance at a quick shot theres a lot to be said for being able to aim at his nose and the bullet connects with his neck at 270 yards!no mil dots/rangefinder/ arsing around. shoots very flat, you know if you aim high up on a fox thats out a goodway 300 and farther that the bullet is still going to make contact with the animal! Ive heard the .204 shoots similar! Quote Link to post
