my baby. Got a new set of eyes and legs this past week end. Didn't have it's nose attached for this pic

if there's no interest in the ear muffs I'll probably just keep them I'm also quite keen to see if I can get better groupings at further distances. Hoping to load a bit this week end and then next week go out to targets at 250m

my latest purchase https://karoooutdoor.com/products/rudolph-varmint-v1-5-25x50-riflescope-30mm-tube-with-t3-illuminated-reticle

so I've just bought a Rudolph scope that comes with electronic ear muffs as part of the package. I don't particularly need the ear muff so I'm putting them up for sale as soon as it arrives next week. They seem to go for between 900 and just over R1000 new. Will take R800 for them. Anyone interested?

like your work DJR I just bought one of these: https://karoooutdoor.com/products/rudolph-varmint-v1-5-25x50-riflescope-30mm-tube-with-t3-illuminated-reticle not from these guys or at this prices but this cope

I just bought a 2.4m long fairly solid wooden workbench for R200 off a guy on facebook market. Looks full of oil but for R200 I don’t mind putting a bit of effort in to try and clean it Finally I'll have a bit of a work space in my garage

any comments or thoughts on optisan scopes? there's a nice looking one for sale but haven't really seen them before. And is a good price Looking at this one: https://www.optisanoptics.com/evx/evx-6-24x56/

Let's not get started on having a custom rifle built, completely from scratch, or I might just start of a story that took 20 years from start to finish - do tell:) I'd like to the buy the barrel and action already assembled and just drop it into a chassis that I know it'll fit into

Question: I’d like to purchase a barrel action and seat it into a chassis. Do I license the barrel action in the same manner as a normal rifle? Or is it easier to purchase a second hand complete rifle and then just change the chassis

sweet ride... weight?

agree with you. this is probably close to the best the scope will allow

anyone know where I can get a 50 calibre bullet? Just need a single bullet, no brass, no powder etc?

there are a few other things I need to improve on. Trigger control etc I'm using a standard rifle rest which isn't the most stable but it worked. Am considering a bipod soon. The scope is a remington 4x40 wide angle and it's a fixed magnification scope. I'll get a pic of the cross hairs. The target is a busy target and next time I'll use a simpler target with less on it. I like the idea of darkening the lines etc I aim at the centre every time

thanks DJR. But at 100m I can't see the holes I've shot on the target:( at 50m it's not great either so I need something that allows me to see what I've shot and at least aim at the same spot.

58gr

super happy with todays shooting. Due to the lack of a great scope I pulled back to 50m. These were y two best groupings 57.8 gr and 58 gr This was 4 shots at 50m

Thanks we've got a family farm in the karoo and apparently the springbok population is doing fairly well. I can hunt there but it's a bit of a drive.

anyone have recommendations for places close to cape town that I can hunt springbok at not ridiculous prices?

very nice I am looking for a good inexpensive secondhand .22 rifle if anyone have one available that they are keen to sell. Am looking in the R2500- R3000 bracket if possible and I stay in CT. PM details

very cool. Mine took just over a month from the time I got the sms to say approved to the day it was ready to collect. I'm thinking of doing my shotgun competency license this year

I sold a car a few years ago and felt uneasy about giving the guy my car before my money was in and he didn't want to give me the money without the car. My solution was I went with him to his bank and made the lady at the counter confirm to me that he had sufficient money in his account. Then he gave her the instruction to transfer I made the cashier confirm that the money had left his account and was transferred to my account and that there was no way for him to reverse the transaction. Seemed ok to me

the only way would be to split the ride into two parts. Or cycle harder
