    Default Flaigs 458

    Mac I finally got that Brovnick 458 regulated . Shoots one ragged group at 65 yd.Think I will take it in May for giraffe and waterbuck, just to ring it out. Johnny thinks we have a buff huntin 2012. Shoot till we get tired. Saeed kicked me off ARF for a place description that was not politically correct. New home here be more careful with descriptions of places.

    Keep your post civil

    That is all good with your 458 rifle at 65 yards or less.

    From the sound of things you will need a little reach for the other game animals unless you are taking another rifle along.

    Im taking my AHR .416 Rigby. Although I can hit my 200 yd. 12x18 steel plates in the middle with the double. The 416 IS MURDER out to 400. I have a good range and shoot alot when it's not windy. Today in Saint Jo ,Tx we had 55mph. gust with steady at 40mph. recon that would teach you about windage hold.
