1416 :thumbsup:

Funny about the brass, I never had the problem with mine. Tried a dozen or more different ammo in it too so have had slightly different cases though it :unknown:

Back to the Bavarian... I see they do one in 7mm-08 now :D

Ok thanks Vic. My 223 is on the way so have a range of cals covered now, good chance to start saving for something really nice. This could be a winner.

If you like the 1416 you'd love the 1712 best .22 on the market outta of a box hands down L :drinks: :thumbsup: :drinks:
I've learned that pleasing everyone is impossible, but pissing everyone off is a piece of cake.
