The Italian Job - A Jackal On Tour!
Team Jackal shooter Dean Hadfield, aka the Welsh Hillbilly, tells us all about his recent trip to Italy to take part in the a world first……. The 1st IPRF rimfire world championships did not disappoint. After having a week to reflect it’s safe to say the whole experience was overwhelming and gave me immense pride to be able to represent our country.

Vortex Razor Gen 3 review by the Welsh Hillbilly
Two years ago I took the jump in to precision rifle 22. Taking my trusty rabbit rifle I started by upgrading the stock to a chassis the next thing on the list was the optic.

For some it’s a quest that has no end, a search for the Holy Grail of ‘Lots’. In certain respects it is a search that will never end. Rimfire ammunition is notorious for being inconsistent from one lot(production run) to the next. Serious bench rest shooters when they...
