A good mate of mine recently brought home his dad’s old Mossberg 46B 22lr. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240107/e52229a83fbfff35d204c46de903aad3.jpg Interesting design with a 15 round tube mag and a kicker that flicks the rounds up to align with the chamber: https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...

Since recently receiving it from his dads side of the family he had only shot a few factory Win 80gn loads through it. It came with a b...

I took the proud owner and his dad out for a look with the spotlight one night last week and he blooded the Krico including a nice headshot. Ammo was the CCI 30gn HP.
