AusVarmint

A bit late, oh well.
Looks like a top night[emoji106]

I started doing it on the 5.6x57 and will do the 17 Rem cases next time as I am getting a few splits there. I use a similar setup to Camel

To be honest the .204 is only a more modern version of a .17Rem :shock: The previous whiz bang point and shoot super fox rifle (and the .17 is a lot more skin friendly, not that it matters any more). :poke: I thought about trading my .17Rem on a No. 1 varmint in 204 until my son told me not to be so...

I know 2 good looking european females that'd be very disappointed with that rule, how about I let one of them tag along and I just won't pay attention to em

Found it!

Rules:
2. Photo proof required.
How say you Sir?

I will expect as you will be using your wifes rifle that said photo will include a nice outfit

I think it will also be my choice for the next outing. I challenge you Sir - to a 30-30 off. We kill and the AusVarmint reprobates decide the win. Rules: 1. Must be a deer. 2. Photo proof required. 3. Bonus points for Artistic appeal. 4. Sledging and corruption encouraged. 5. End date of 31 May 201...

Hahaha how about you do all the development and get it sorted then I'll take the lazy route

This has got me a bit inspired to grab the 30/30 though, got a state forest to the North that shows promise but never delivered I might take it there to tempt fate

Can't help with the new fangled powder but have 34g of the 2208 behind the Woody 150g FN pill (COAL straight from the Lee data with the dies).

Mmmm seems like a real good price and is the pill I have for the 30/30, pity it is not a rifle I grab very often :roll: My young fella is the only one of us to have actually poked holes in something with a heart beat with it, perhaps I should remedy that situation? I'll see how many pills I have in ...

Nice pick up

The B&T's are a pretty good pill the 165's shoot real nice thru my 30/06

ooops make that 180 B&T's shot real nice

Mmmmmm I think you need a tougher thicker plate

.... and found some interesting results. Next was Sako A1 .222 with 24" barrel, 22.0gn BM1 and 40gn v-max. Results were 3108, 3023, 3023, 3018, 3113 fps. Nice and consistent but a bit lower than I was expecting. I was hoping for up around 3300. The highest charge I have loaded to previously is...

Looks real nice

Yeh, the 45/70 is kinda cool. My most carried rifle for the last few years
