Badger contemplates a 5.56 / .223

[saddler]

Sounds like the furry one has been digging for worms & found a cache of canned bangs, in military packaging.

If someone wanted to sacrifice a couple of Finn things...ya never know wot swaps could materialise.
Cheaper to feed 5.56 bang-sticks too.

I know we're talking .223 here, but SWMBO's little semi-custom BRNO Fox in .222 has performed perfectly well out to 600X and has acounted for quite a few Roe Deer at surprising ranges.


Wifey's little semi-custom BRNO Fox dating from 1988.

I believe that CZ do the CZ527 in .223 these days, a very accurate little rifle.

Pretty, but not quite .223 / 5.56

[dromia]

we don't think it wise to stuff 5.56/.223 rounds into a .222

Narrow mindedness is an encumbrance to thought.

Still when you have an affliction of badgers any calibre will do.

Well oomans, we're contemplating a half pint rifle. We generally collect proper battle rifles in big calibres but we're now contemplating a half pint rifle, i.e. summat in .223 /5.56. Maybe .223/5.56 Wylde. What do you recommend? Our prejudice is towards bolt actions, maybe a CZ, but if you know better..

Contact Ovenpaa about the Delta 66 Tube rifle in .223. You will also get lightweight and lppk as a bnus...

A Lurpak bonus?

We're not sure about the sound of that...

[Airbrush]

What sort of shooting are you going to be doing with it?

[meles meles]

Perforating paper at 300 and, occasionally, 600 mards...

Seeing as you like 'battle rifles' have you considered an AR 15?

[tackb]

see if you can find a sako 75 varmint s/h with the 1-8 tube failing that go for one of those chicken tikkas with the 1-8 barrel ?

1-8 will allow you to use 40g up to 77-80g bullets , a very versatile little number the 223 !
