Thanks Pete, what a cracking piece at a great price.

hi Jon, agreed. Probably will get into my top 12 rifles of 2024, if not be no 1.

If there was anyone else in the world who used his thumb to leverage the bolt, I bet you don't now. The amount of flex, enacted made the bolt and rifle scope almost touch.

Winning foxer in 22.250 maybe ?

[@PCMGuns]

It's got the barrel, that's for sure. However, the calibres for this model only show: 308 Win, 243 Win and 6.5 Creedmoor, all great UK choices. Sad to say, I think 22-250 Rem is becoming a bit of a forgotten number, given some of the newer cartridge designs. But in 243 Win, with light/medium bullets, it would be a match for old Charlie, no doubt!

@@PCMGuns thanks for the reply , hard to know a light 243 bullet or a 55g 22 250 , which is actually better , just with licence laws getting harder all the time

@@visiter127 A 243 gives you more choice as to what you hunt, as 22-250, although capable, is not large deer legal in the UK. So you could go from light bullets for fox and heavier for all deer species.
