On second thoughts may be not .308 was toying with the idea of shooting them through the Steyr but dont really want to change the settings on the scope etc.
I will have a play with the other stuff first fitted a mojo sight to the 6.5 swede and the 8mm mauser gonna have a play with them first.
So much fun you can have with a gun :lol: :lol:
