just to update everyone on my new 30.30.

worked up a load for it using 150g win ppfn slugs with ar2208 powder. 32.5 grains had it grouping around 1.5 inches. at 100 mtrs off the bench.

the sticking WAS me modycodling the thing it is cycling perfectly. one complaint is the stock is cracked!! probably was cracked when i picked it up but didnt notice, so they tell me there is no warranty on wood work for any make in the country???!!!!! but they gonna see what they can do

took it out on its first trip yesterday, the story is in the aust and nz hunting forum. check it out.
all the best
