G'day from Australia
Have a sporter with 22 inch barrel ordered. Just waiting on Permit to Aquire to be approved so I can pick her up.
Will eventually put on a walnut stock and bottom metal (floorplate) and have ordered some Talley lightweight mounts.
It's job on the farm will be vermin hunting, rabbits, foxes, wild dogs, pigs, goats and fallow dear (white tail size)
A very long shot would be 200m with most within 100m.
I also like a day at the range - but that's mainly load development and out to 200m maximum.
I have a Leupold 2.5-8 x 36 that is spare. What are your thought?
I was thinking of a Burris Fullfield IV in 2.5-10x42 with the illuminated reticle as hunting will often be at dawn or dusk or under spotlight (yep, it's allowed in Australia on private land)
Not sure I like all the marking in the Burris reticle (I've only seen pictures) but it's a pretty good price.
Anything comparable to the Burris in a similar price range?
I'll save my reloading question for another thread.
Thanks all you beautiful people.
Cheers, iain
