20series

RPA Quadlock action with 32 inch 1/9 twist Bartlein barrel, chambered in straight .284Win which has has exactly 400 rounds down it, it also has a 20MOA rail fitted. Throated for 180gn Berger Hybrids which using the now un-obtainable 4831SC it shot groups of sub 1/2 MOA.Sits in a blue System Gemini bench rest stock (which I don't think can be bought now) with Shooting Shed front and rear bag riders .I have 180 cases which are necked up Lapua 6.5x284, these have been neck turned and are good to go complete with Redding Type S bushing neck die set with correct bushing (.312).I had bought the action from another shooter and Mik Mak at Dolphin built the rifle for me in 2012 when I had aspirations of F-Open, sadly circumstances changed so it's been a proper cabinet queen only selling as I don't use it and shooting interests have changed.There is also a Shooting Shed cleaning rod guide and Tan coloured AiM60 Drag bag to complete the package.I would prefer face to face sale, but could RFD at buyers cost.£1900 seems a fair price but happy to haggle for a genuine buyer. Could also do a part swap for a good quality .22 Semi-Auto AR.Alan advertised elsewhere

It's as much about the ergonomics, personally I couldn't get on with the old AW thumbhole stock it was too small and my trigger finger didnt fall properly, the pistol grip on the AT is far better. Alan

I keep thinking about resurrecting my license. I passed my city and guilds in June 1986 at the age of 13 and had to wait until September for my birthday to have my license issued. At the time I was one of the youngest in the country to pass it and I took my Dads old call sign G1GBW as he'd done the morse and been issued G0BXU. He still operates I haven't touched radio since 89 when I discovered other hobbies. Alan

I'll have that, I'll pm you. Alan

Different batches of the same make of 22 will perform very differently, hence why Eley and other manufacturers offer batch testing. That said when I was shooting prone small-bore I always went with RWS R50 as I found it consistent. Another way to vary results is to play with bedding bolt torques. Bench rest shooters seem to use barrel tuners to tweek even further. Alan

I emailed RCBS about sourcing spare springs for my trimpro, never had a reply buy two weeks later a packet turned up in the post from the USA with the bits in, no charges. Definitely worth emailing... Alan

I used to shoot prone smallbore to a reasonable level and went batch testing at Eley. Back then you could only test Tenex. It was done in a 50m tunnel with the action clamped in a dummy stock in a vice to minimise any errors. The difference from batch to batch was staggering. I never did find a really good batch and generally use RWS R50 which consistently suited my Anschutz 2013. The point being what works one day might not the next depending on when the ammo was made.

Try HPS-TR Alan

If you contact him with the details he will usually add it to the database. Alan

Have you chronographed the ammo

What elevation did you have for 600?

Lol not club guns but members... I had a go with one and it was great fun

Imbel made a few hundred .22lr FN style rifles, we have two at our club.. Alan

Is a thing of beauty 👍

I totally understand, it was more idle curiosity as I said I didn't recognise the powder.

Just did a search and found a Video from 2017 Shooting show where the guys says they are internet based.. Alan

Form laminate stocks are also very nice, £622 fully adjustable. Alan

Something like this?? Alan Huns Head.doc

possibly mate I'll have a scan through👍

Banus, good point it was more curiosity, I don't recognise the style of kernels. All the powders I use are stick, looking at helping someone load hunting rounds for their 30-06. Alan

Pic of powder

Hi all Can anyone shed light on what powder this is likely to be. Pulled from factory Remington Core lokt 180gn 30-06.. the powder weight was 51.9gn. I don't recognise the shape of kernels.. Cheers Alan
