Shooting at CSI this evening - if any of you shoot there - see you tonight, Ill be the guy in the "Pakehas know how to party" t-shirt (if there is more than one with that shirt - well it would be embarrassing for a start)

Brought myself some 22 ammo today,

a brick of CCI supsonic hollow point (dont care much for HP, didnt see any standard bullets with subsonic loads)

and 20 rounds of CCI shot shell, mainly for curiosity reasons! http://www.guncity.co.nz/cci-22-lr-s...idp217437.html I think this will be pretty weak in actually killing small game - i'll report back and let you know. Its got a small plastic dome on top of the bullet filled with tiney shot (#12) would this explode on impact? or fire like a shotgun? If it explodes on impact it might be useful for possum/rabbit but if not, it'll be limited to sparrows i rekon haha!

also saw this for sale http://www.guncity.co.nz/22lr-cci-se...idp229205.html

Now those i should of gotten over the shotshell but they were $150/brick so i said naaa but the reviews online are pretty good.

the pic of the mellon showing 4 small exit points are most interesting. Imo for small game this is exactly what you want, wide spread damage and little penetration. No point punching a nice small round hole in an animal, gotta kill it quickly.

Fitted a scope to my trusty little Brno today, roughly bore-sighted it. Now need some place where I can set up a rest and properly zero it. Any idea of a good zero range for .22 subsonic? So that for a decent depth of useful ranges the bullet's hitting within an inch or so of where the sights are lined up. Also, any idea of a place around the Waikato where I can actually go out and do the zeroing, now that the "Onewhero Range" is closed?

Also getting ready to strip the varnish off the stock and steam out the dents, rub in some linseed oil.

Actually chaps I've always fancied a Desert Eagle. Where am I going to get one of those suckers....?? And now that I think of it, an AK47, not cos its good, but because its an icon.

Desert Eagle = $3-4k, same requirements as other pistols. I know a guy who has a couple and has found the .50AE ones to be a pain because they can't be fired at the CSI range. .50AE has the same rim size as .44mag so same bolt, just new barrel and mag needed.

Wolf: All subsonic rounds have pretty much the same trajectory which is 4" down from the bore-line at 50m. 25m is 1" down, 35m is 2" down so a 25m zero will give you everything from 0-35m within 1".
