Hello all fly shooters
  i shoot a 6.5x47L   with 123gn Lapua  projectiles  my action is a 7500 Lawton  with  a #8  Pac-Nor barrel  
  the scope is a March 10-60   and i have made my own thumb-hole stock     this is a light gun   and if i was to have a
  heavy gun it would be a 7 mm  or 30 cal  to take the advantages  of heavier and high BC bullets  that handle the
  wind a lot better than the smaller ones     the extra weight of a heavy gun would be needed to soak up the recoil  
    at the moment i am quite happy to only shoot one class at a match  -- but that could change in the future
                                                                             john  mc
  Every Shot inside the Eight Ring would be GREAT
