    Looks like we might be needing some binos, i've only got a crap pair, but my rifle is only good for 200 yards anyway :P
    Looks good. Rifle needed, though. Unless I take the .303, but I suck with Iron sights so go figure.

    Well between my .303 and Scott's .30-30 I think I'm sorted. I'm just seeing if I can rustle up something with a scope on, I wouldn't want to be shooting at anything beyond about 100m with irons, my eyes aren't good enough.

    Cheers. Thinking about it, with a cut down SMLE, the 32-40 black powder, the .30-30 and the .308 MLX, I think we're probably pretty well covered...

    Just looking at those photos on the other forum, looks like some pretty serious hills etc. so wouldn't want to get left out due to not being able to get close enough for a comfortable shot.

    Ah, that makes it easier. I've got a couple of boxes of .303 ammo here, anyway.

    I have about 300 rounds of factory, modern production,.303 ammo. From memory it is soft point not military ball.

    Sharron's brother left it for me under instructions to use it before it went past its use by date.

    Well I'll bring my 40-50 rounds along and we can have a play with that on the sighting range for comparison.

    It'd be a shame to let the other stuff go mouldy though...

    Like this .22 ammo a mate was using in the weekend!


    Also shot a goat, twice, with the .308 at about 200m but the second shot stood the thing up and it managed to leg it, leaking a fair bit of blood. Lost the blood trial in the gorse after about 150m.

    Had been using the scope as a spotting scope at 25m and forgot to wind the focus back out so shot was taken blurry, but was a decent shoulder shot.

    Damn strong things these goats.
