    Living Dangerously

    Gotta love bikes. But this is the type of bike that always puts a smile on my face ... even after many years of not riding. Still miss it like crazy. This was my Roof of Africa bike from 2012.

    Rhino bullets

    I have only had exceptional performance from the Rhino Solid Shank points I have used. I use the 180gr in my 300 win Mag travelling @ 2996fps I stand to be corrected but I think Kobus has now sold to a gent in JHB. But the points are still readily available.

    Sabatti 870?

    Hi sorry I have only seen this thread now. I have a Sabatti Rover in 300 Win Mag. I really enjoy the rifle. So far it has proved not to be fussy. I shoot a 180gr Rhino and it is deadly accurate. For an entry level rifle it seems well made and being Italian is easy on the eyes.

    Change in point of aim - causes

    Thank you very much @Ray B & mark-hunter There is a huge amount of relevance in both your answers. I understand that wind & heat make a difference but did not think it would be hugely relevant at 100m. Zeroing and setting a scope to a hunters 2" compared to actual clicks based on a chrony & BC...
