Not from our friend, but reportedly Tasmania 4 AM. Would have made an interesting time to milk.

With integral rails becoming a little more common, its always a plus when considering an action, or new rifle for me.

Welcome! @jrebel pointed you in the correct direction. The 120 has a pretty solid reputation in .284 Only way to know for sure on any of them is measure it yourself. Many aren't as stated.

Hard to say, maybe better, maybe not. Perhaps @gltaylor has the answer.

I'm saying emphatically from experience with 200 grain .308 diameter bullets it most definitely would. It also would at 2000 fps, and less than half that energy. I'm also saying the 6.5 125 HHT 2000 fps and about 1200 ft lbs has a good probability of getting through. (no experience with it...

Yet I calculate almost 3000 ft lbs of energy. By comparison Federal list their .30-06 200 grain Bear Claw, at 2865 fps, and only 2540 ft lbs. Then Outdoor Life says all I need is a 1000 ft lbs. So now I'm confused by what those numbers mean.;):eek::rolleyes::ninja:

The Hammer smith Eric has built 2 rifles for me, and done other work. Call when Steve is back, should be easy, cant speak to cost.

I looked briefly for these the other day, and then got side tracked. Thank You!

Ouch!

How bad were the parasites? I wonder if @Farleg has a similar issue?
