These are reasonably accurate shooters. I can only get 5 round half inch groups at 300 metres. I have begun lapping and reseating everything to see if it can do better and will try with a 168 grainer btsp in future. My mate says my scope is crap, it’s a Boloa 4-8-56 with illuminated horus reticle. I got it from ebay for $217. It is made in China and has a 34 ml tube and is ffp. She’s a bit heavy but I like her. The rounds I tried to date are selliers from CZ, they are the cheapest. I will use them as reloads for next time. Where are the best bullets made?
It's just a pitty lithgow arms has poor customer service. Contacted them several times via their web link and not a response in three months. Also no email confirming warranty registration
Thanks for that Ranger_Rob The scope is a Burris 3-15x50 XTR II. G2B Mil-Dot reticle. www.burrisoptics.com/scopes/xtr-ii-riflescopes-series/xtr-ii-riflescope-3-15x50mm
Out of curiosity have you had a full load every time you've tested the magazine when it doesn't feed properly on the first 3? If so, it may be possible that it is spring tension due to the weight of the rounds
Very nice demonstration, well explained and demonstrated.
You should also do a demonstration on "how to" on the trigger adjustment.
would be great to see that
Nice vid mate, really thinking about getting one, gotta support Australian business and jobs
Thanks mate. Not only support local jobs, but own a great rifle too.

Hi 666,
Start to reload and you'll get much better results. S to answer your question, every shooter has their own preference.
oof, nice one mate, looks like a sick gun.

Good video im thinking of getting the 223. What kind of cheek strap is that on the butt by the way?
STAYFROSTY BARTHILAS It's called a VooDoo Tactical.
Trent Dafonseca Thanks mate.
Great vid! Where did you purchase the cheek rest from? I find that it is a must on this rifle.
Danny Thanks mate. I purchased it from a well known gun store in QLD.
Thanks for the vid, very nice. Just out of interest, what scope are you running? Cheers

G'day mate. That rifle is long gone. Far too many issues in the end. Replaced it with a Sauer 101.
So much for you reveiws. @@TrentusMaximus78
What were the issues you had to make you sell if you don't mind me asking?
Unable to load 180gn bullets. They kept smashing into the chamber face.
Try a mambo
Is the bolt handle removable?
It is. But I have sold the rifle.
