Not even sure anyone who won it has received it. I could be wrong. But, yeah, no kiddin', 3 months later and we're still drooling over that rifle. C'mon EW put it up for purchase! Peace.

I always thought a prize rifle showed up in store 6 months after it was awarded.

The last one showed up just around a month after. I think you should be able to find it in the Februarys 2017 update.JamboWhoDat wrote:I always thought a prize rifle showed up in store 6 months after it was awarded.

Doesn't seem to like it anyway, lol... He hasn't used it at all at the last page of the "hunt history". Just above 100 kills with. Terrible kill and hit accuracy percentage. Compared to the .30R which he's got almost 1000 kills with and a better accuracy.RidgeBack69 wrote:The players that have won it have received and used it.

Maybe because he cant buy or got the scope for it? I don't know. For now it's definately not his favourite weapon, that's for sure looking at the figures.

I don't think the scope was part of his prize, he's strictly using iron sights. I looked at several of his hunts right after he got it and there's no scope on it on any of his harvests' scoresheets.Generalkommendant wrote:Doesn't seem to like it anyway, lol...

The scope they've slated for it won't be as powerful as the 12x50 scope, only 1.1-8x30, but it's illuminated, and will be a damn-sight better than iron sights in the perpetual darkness of rain soaked, tree shrouded Piccabeen Bay. It certainly couldn't be any worse than the .405 lever action's poopoo peep sight.
It's hard to tell how the weapon performs, his stats are not good with it for the relatively small number of harvests he's made (as mentioned above.)

Only the first place finisher got the scope to go with it. I think his name was scholargypse or something like that but I am not sure.JimboCrow wrote:I don't think the scope was part of his prize, he's strictly using iron sights.

I think thy should put a tool kit in the store with a hacksaw and a file just so we could cut off the stupid peep sight

Right you are, RB, scholargypsys. He has the scope but only 7 harvests with the weapon. He was taking out ibexes with head shots at 150 - 185 m, but not making instakills. Hard to judge. Also, a couple of Polar Bears at 40 m. One instakill, one with a quick follow up.RidgeBack69 wrote:Only the first place finisher got the scope to go with it.

By the time we get it Piccabeen will be a distant memory.

Pickle beans has been in my rear view for a bit now. I'm hoping that the up coming commuinty comp sparks some re-interest in it.JimboCrow wrote:Right you are, RB, scholargypsys.
