  1. I bought this scope from Glenn, smashing bloke to deal with and spot on with its condition, alas with my old failing eyesight I am struggling to pick up the retical in bright daylight, hence this piece is up for sale again. I will take £900 or close sensible offers, it really is a lovely scope I just wish I could see through it, someone with good eyesight going to get a some great optics Ian
  2. Great deal done with Ruger7717, top bloke recommended seller
  3. If you can find one original Sako Finnfire Varmint takes some beating, superbly accurate Ian.
  4. Get a competent smith to fit a M16 style extractor much better then the Sako style Ian.
  5. Selling my NV rifle, Sako 85 Stainless/ Laminated 223, 20" 1:12 Fluted Barrel, Threaded M18x1 With dedicated 223 Wildcat Evolution mod. Single Set Trigger and 5 shot Detach Mag. Complete with Contessa Piccatinney rail. Less then 150 rnds Excellent Condition This rifle shoots sub 0.5moa with Quality Handloads. Quantity of Lapua Brass also included £1100 or sensible offers. Photon in Pic not included Ian.
  6. I develop a load and then see how fast its going, nothing could be simpler, why complicate matters. Ian.
  7. Yes i would like to know as well Ian.
  8. I shoot a single shot 22BR 1:12 twist, launching 55 grn SBKs @3580fps it groups 2" at 500yds and i have taken rabbits at 470 yards and crows at 430. Longest fox was 230yds, unless you really want to stretch the range i dont think you need to go for fast twists and heavy bullets, just use a more suitable calibre, personally when i want to reach out past 500 i pick up my 257 AI. Ian.
  9. I have never had anything other then a first class service and very good deals from Rugby Gunshop and Northampton Gun Company in the 25 years i have been shopping there. I have been buying my reloading stuff from Norman, again excellent service, they always have what i need. First class mail order service from Brownells and Sinclair even though they are international, oh and not forgetting PacNor, top prople. Ian.
  10. Believe it or not the fit was not too bad, i reckon whoever did it took the crests off the thread to tart it up a bit. Ian.
  11. I did a thread correction for one of George's customers, it was the most shocking muzzle thread i have ever seen. Rifle was a very nice Sauer Outback in 308 that had been threaded by a "reputable" shop. This so called 1/2x20 UNF was .484" diameter, did not have an undercut at all, was torn and had no chamfer on the muzzle end. The moderator would not butt up against the shoulder but the customers previous mod (T8) went on no problem!! All i could do was chase the threads form an undercut and make sure the shoulder was perpendicular to the bore, ideally the muzzle should have been re-threaded but due to the fluted barrel, re-threading would have cut into the flutes, something the customer did not want. I had a photo but my PC crashed last weekend and i have lost all my previous files. Ian
