I am amazed at how gentle the recoil is with the silencer. This is a very fun to shoot rifle.

to tell the truth, I'm not quite sure what the problem was, But I couldn't see your pics, so I uploaded them to photobucket. you may have exceeded your available bandwidth, or possibly have some privacy settings/ blocking going on.

Hello,
I am new here tonight,,, just got my wisper last week,
Cz527 LH action set trigger
pacnor 1-6.5 yes 1-6.5 twist, factory contour. 16.5 inch
using rp brass stepped up with 4 expanders in a sinclair die (6, 6.5, 7mm 30)
Trident 9mm silencer
3x10 Weaver- miday scope with Mildot recticle ($300 sale price)
Nice looking gun.

My idea was to have a rifge that I can kill a deer with and not have everybody in the area know that I shot. Was thinking that I would need to make a head shot for a clean kill.
50 yards from pulling into the range to fire test loads on Sat. I noticed a large road killed deer,,,,,, after firing 10 rounds I walked over to the deer and put one thru the boiler room, flipped it over and found no marks,,, (This deer was not here Fri. evening - fresh).
Went and got a peice off cardboard to place under deer, and shot thru the heard shoulder and high shoulder near spine using 220 smk at 1050 fps. Flipped the deer over and found that aLL THREE SHOTS HAD GONE THRU IT AND ALL TUMBLED!
The way I see it a shot in the lungs in gonna turn things into jelly,,, not ruining any meat.
Maybe my son can show me how to post pics.

.300 Fireball, S I Defense, 16" barrel, 1 in 8" twist
DPMS top and bottom
Timney trigger
& blah, blah, blah mall ninja crap.

Still being tested, but goal was to quietly adjust the hog population.

for THIS rifle case trim is to 1.4”, below 1.385 is non-useable
