scottish newbie saying hello

Post by sauer » 16 Nov 2012, 21:32

aye aye folks

im in north east o scotland....montrose in angus.
into deer stalking, foxing & rabbits of course

currently working a custom Russell Gall .25-06, a sako m591 .22-250 & a cz452 .22lr

been really interested in NV for couple o yrs but know no-one in my neck o the woods to see thru any kit.
being typical jock im not paying big bucks for summit with no "back-up" or warranty.

fancy add-on so i can switch between rifles but worried bout damaging a tubed unit but mmm no sure....hear good stuff bout starlight archer.

did read bout new anticipated kit but heard lot of bad reports bout past dealings with the designer so unsure there.

i have taken a wee jump in that an old pal i havent seen for a while ...i caught up with and he has a neighbour he now shoots with & hes a boffin with electronics and he has built his own version of nitesite so im waiting on mine coming (nearly ready)
seen his own and videos they have recorded and impressed.

hope to learn more and if anyone up my neck o the woods say hello :D

cheers guys

Very nice indeed.

I went for Robertsons stocks and Border barrels, but couldn't stretch to to BATS for them. I'm afraid the T3 actions will have to stay on them.

I've heard many good reports on Russell Gall builds. In fact, the chap who sold me my .243 was having a Russell Gall build done in 6.5 x 47. He's very happy with it.

Paul,
On here at least min!
I've been on holiday this week and didn't know if you were working away.
Your NV will be ready over the weekend so we need to get it fitted, although I have to say it's going to look really amateurish on that beautiful gun!!

Cheers
