austrian proofmarks, no doubt






Ha ha.

And the .243 would be perfect for just those big Austrian hopping mouses ...

Even though the .243 is not traditional, I reckon a carbine in this choice is great for Australia. Handy for scrub hunting of feral pigs. Alpine feral goats. Perfect for a Gippsland Hog deer hunt. Great for fallow, chital deer, and still capable on reds, and rusa. Handy for a chamois hunt in NZ. Perfect calibre for skippies. Sacrilige coming, but probably better than a 6.5x54 M-S for smaller medium game in Australia ! Ha ha ha, I've always said why have a 6mm when the 6.5mm is far better ... except if one is locked only into heavy RN 160 gr 6.5mm's ...

Nice purchase.
