Not your bi-ceps lads.

 

I've seen there is a fair few shooter on here so thought we might benefit from a picture thread.

 

Also anything game wise you fancy, I'm not fussed. Ill kick off the runnings.

nice rifle what is it and what is that carcass Deer?

[Sam Thompson]

Hi mate,

 

Rifle is a Steyr Prohunter in .243 Scopes a S&B 8x56, and a T8 mod (big black one) changing to an Ase Utra Stainless one in the later photos.

 

The carcass is a roe I neck shot @ about 130m a year back. Bullet was a 95gr. Nosler "hunting" Ballistic Tip.

 

At the time I used that rifle for my small deer stalking, I have now changed to a 6.5x55 for better stopping power, but the .243 still does the business on rabbits-foxes out to 300m

I've only owned air rifles then got into lurchers so stopped using guns but used to do a lot of fixing with my mates dad who is ex special forces he's uses a .243 what a gun that is mate I envy you. He set up a fridge door with a tiny square drawn on it one day when setting up his sights and gave me a go, I can't remember the distance but it was a long distance first shot I missed by about 6 inches and the next missed by millimetrers I'm not a good shot just the gun was awesome wouldn't like to see it in the wrong hands
