  1. A few years ago Steve Kershaw built me a 20" 22BR custom rifle in an AI AX stock on a Stiller action. 3650 fps with 50grn V-Max behind N135. Results speak for themselves....still shoots like that now. Thinking of re-barrelling to 22 creedmoor due to case prep for 22BR. If you like faffing with case prep....22BR is a stunning cartridge. Regards, Rob.
  2. Hi......can't help with 133/140 but use Vit135 in mine. Details on photo attached.....can't fault it with 50grn max, same load shoots just the same with 52grn Berger too. Regards, Rob.
  3. Bugger ! Just bought this exact thing direct from Tier One, at significantly more than this ! Good luck with the sale.....good saving for someone.....have a bump on me. Regards, Rob.
  4. Thats a steal.....someone's going to be very happy ! Have a bump on me 👍
  5. This needs to be in the classified section, but sadly if you read the rules you need to be a forum member for at least a month before posting for sale items.... I think you may find this removed. Regards, Rob.
  6. Don't discount the Delta Optics scopes......from Optics Warehouse. All good glass and depends on your budget. I have couple of the Deltas and really rate both of them......one is the Titanium 4.5-30x50 (about £790) and this has the simplest fine reticle which I use for general hunting and foxing (works great with add-on NV) but also can be used at extended distances. I also have the Stryker 5-50x56 (about £1600) which also has a very fine reticle. They both have illuminated reticles and solid turrets which track really accurately. I have had (and still own) some premium European glass, and to my eyes there is very little to choose from in terms of quality. I would suggest you try to get a look through whatever you intend to purchase beforehand, as the reticle is very important to your enjoyment and I love the reticles on the Deltas. Regards, Rob.
  7. Highly unlikely....the post is 3 years old !😁 If you look at the top of the post you should see the date 👍
  8. I've also learned the hard way ! The only "upside" I can see to leaving the mod on is the 5 seconds you save from removing it........hardly worth it ! Absolutely now a matter of routine.....every mod no matter what rifle it's attached to is removed before putting away....usually before putting in gun-slip, never mind cabinet. Regards, Rob.
  9. I think it's a trait of the HPR breeds, they have the most expressive eyes !
  10. Slovakian Roughhaired Pointer........supposedly best of all contributing breeds.....Weimmie/GRP/Sesky. Allegedly calm and biddable........Archie not so much, think his mother must have laid on him as pup and starved him of oxygen ! Didn't start to calm down until he was 3 yrs and even then he wasn't that calm. He is not, and will never be, a peg dog or sit under high seat, he is however fantastically driven and will hunt and track all day long....he loves it ! Regards, Rob.
  11. Here's Archie......10 years old and as mad as a box of frogs ! Regards, Rob.
  12. The only difference between the xm30/xm30s is the quality of the screen/picture clarity in the "s". Same field of view. Horses for courses......I use my xm30s for stalking and foxing.....love it ! Regards, Rob.
  13. Hi Michal, I have the Delta; although I don't shoot long range or heavy calibre I love it. The reticle is really fine with a single tiny illuminated centre dot, great as a hunting scope. I traded a PM2 to get the Delta and I think the glass to my tired old eyes is almost as good.....maybe at max mag, not quite the same.....however the reticle swayed it for me. Turrets are nice and crisp and track accurately. I got mine from Optics Warehouse.....i'm pretty sure you could get one and see how it suits and return for a full refund if you don't like it (just cost you the postage). Regards, Rob.
  14. RossG23.....you may not have read the for sale rules but you need to fill your profile in and must state a price.👍 If you don't you may have your ad removed. Regards, Rob.
