Very nice, as the others have said, New Gun Day is awesome.

Maybe we should lobby for a National holiday - New Gun Day!
Anyone suggest a date? I have one, but not quite sure how it would be received, so I shall keep it to myself!

Same. Used to have a remington in 22-250. Sold it and instantly regretted it. Such a fun calibre.

first 5 shots. only bore sighted. shot at 50m with federal 52gr speer hollow points, so not the tightest group. but very nice to shoot and is a vast difference to my super lite 308 :D

New Tikka T3x Lite .223 picked up today. Mounted a Bushnell 3-9x40 on it. Unfortunately I'm off to work so will have to wait until I get back to shoot her. Can hardly wait. Best day of the year so far.
