Excellent mate I will look for it whilst running around with score cards and such stuff. Going to have a crack at F Open with my tikka 6.5x55, it's only a lite but I have a nice mild load with 147 ELD's that shoot really well. Shot a 55.5 at 500 and 55.3 at 600 in the old plastic stock but now have it in a boyd's varmint thumbhole. Will put a fix'd 36 Leupold on it and have a crack, so long as I don't come last I'll be happy as a pig in shit.
