    I've only got a Ruger 10/22 and semi shotgun, but when I was looking at rifles a couple of years ago i landed on the 7mm-08 for a decent caliber for pretty much anything round here. I think i was gonna go for a Tika T3 but never ended up following through.

    should have gone to specsavers. thought you meant 300 rsaum. yeah 300 mag is a little bit excessive.

    Haha exactly, and this is an older one with the alloy action rather than all the plastic that the new ones have.

    yeah. but when you can watch the hammer cycling through the scope...you know the action is rough.

    they need about 4 hours of work before they're worth shooting.

    yeah with the hard hammer that grinds out rails in the top and doesn't ride square... they're better than a magtech... a bit.

    seen a lot of 10/s but yet to be impressed by one.

    I accidentally a deposit on an AR10 from Guncity.

    By far the cheapest on the market (admitedly it was on Special - less than $2k for the rifle) - Ironically one of the other supplier I contacted rather rudely claimed that no one does AR10's for less then $2k...

    I'm getting a nice Leupold optic on it for serious hunting - and am looking at Aliexpress to get a knock-off ACOG for target plinking.

    And my Licence has shown up in the mail

    During all of the furore over Senate hearings into members of the Trump Administration the Republicans are slipping a few law changes through under the radar. The "Hearing Protection Act" might be considered one such.

    A law to do with hearing aids? No, a law to make firearm silencers legal. Cynical much? Not a shocker here because silencers are legal and there are genuine reaons why shooters might want one. Not so in the USA, opponents can only envisage quieter murders.

    you've always been able to get silencers in the us, you just have to pay 200 buck to the ATF.

    Arskle is right and so are ewe Scummy, 4 hours or more on a 10/22 and shes a good weapon, any Gevarm is immediately a good weapon, specially those itty bitty little take down jobbies, lovely bit of kit.
