Hi Dromia, just had a scan at the mag and must say was quite impressed with it, some real good shooting stuff I didn't know (every days a school day I guess). There was one article that made me chuckle however, it was the one on page 80 "The Long View F Class Association" by Les Holgate. In the article he says

A lot of shooters have a 6mm rifle or similar (such as 6.5's). But as the league shoots have progressed it has become evident that whilst the 6mm is ideal for short range shoots, it struggles at extreme ranges particularly when the wind blows

Hmmm I thought to myself, I had better let that 6.5 Grendel I have in the safe know that it's not supposed to be hitting targets at 800 and 1000 yards with great results. Looks to me like old Les there hasn't heard or fired the 6.5 Grendel yet. I wonder what the Scandinavians he mentioned in the article were shooting.

Like I said mate every days a school day, we live and learn.
