[QUOTE="bigfellascott, post: 516483, member: 31611"] Hi mate, My only rifle is a Howa 22.250HB Scope is a Zeiss 6.5-20x50 - excellent scope with very clear, sharp and bright Leupold Mounts Boyds Laminated Thumbhole Stock in the colour "Pepper" I handload for it and use Sierra 55gn Super Roo projectiles (Same as Sierra Game King) shoot brilliantly in my rifle. I also use 34.5gn AR2206H powder CCI Large Rifle Primers Cases are Rem and are FLR and fully prepped All the target are shot of a bipod and homemade sandbag and are shot at 100m This rifle is setup for fox and rabbit hunting, manly as a spotlighting setup or varminting, it weights about 5kg so not really suited as a walk about outfit. I previously owned Howa rifle and they have always been very reliable and have also been exstreamly accurate. This particular rifle is standard with the only thing done to it is I've had the trigger worked so it is set for about 8-10 oz letoff and zero creap, slight pressure and bang!! Beautiful. Would I buy another Howa - you bet your *** I would, never let me down and have always been great shooters, this one has even shot some .4" groups at 200m. [/QUOTE]
