Congrats, tripod, on the purchase. Happy plinking. :)

Jeff Cooper advocated four basic rules of gun safety:
1) All guns are always loaded. Even if they are not, treat them as if they are.
2) Never let the muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy.
3) Keep your finger off the trigger till your sights are on the target.
4) Identify your target, and what is behind it.

Ten years later, having taught himself to shoot with his left, he won two gold medals in the rapid-fire class.

Bugga!!, now you owe me a new keyboard, this one's drowned in drool!! :mrgreen:

Folks, I had the pleasure of giving this baby some exercise followed by a great lunch and conversation with Ronnie, and let me tell you she's one incredible performer and bloody quiet too, the Mamba is IMO a scope worth every last cent, the gun's build quality has to be seen to be believed, the trigger is a rifleman's dream :D its only too easy to punch one-hole groups all day long with this rifle, and you'll never tire of it! Congrats Ron! Keep them coming!!
"With solid bullets on heavy animals such as elephant, rhino and buffalo this power is quite apparent but is not so obvious as when soft-nose bullets are being used, say, lion, particularly when is a case of stopping a charge : the .404 will stop him all right, but will seldom crumple him quite so completely as will the .416" -- John Taylor, Big Game and Big Game Rifles, (Ch.

That’s a real nice gun from a company that has been consistent in quality.
They also make some of the best break barrel gas ram fitted guns. There is only one problem with these guns though……….maaaaaaan they are addictive :D .
Wish you a trigger happy life! :D
Happy plinking.
A few clarifications. Did you place an order on line? If its from the UK, how did you over come the FAC problem. If its not an FAC approved rifle what is the FPS. If it is indeed shipped from the UK could you share details with us. Sure some members could make good use of such details.

Cheers

……and dead accurate I guess (almost goes without saying with a Theoban)
