Doesn't always list everything he does so worth emailing but I know he does them. Here https://www.praesidiarifles.co.uk

Just don't use oak or sweet chestnut. As tanin react with the brass. Discover from personal experience 😉

Ammunition folder/case
trucraft replied to Scotch_egg's topic in Suppressors / Moderators, Bipods, Anything else
£60 does feel like a lot to carry ammo however it's UK, handmade, small production item. Has to be 2hrs work in them at least. There is a place for the plastic ammo boxes but these are the way to go most of the time. -
Delta stryker scope
trucraft replied to Matthew Pearson's topic in Target Shooting & Informal Long Range Shooting Practice
Is this the world's shortest review or for sale? 😜 If you put it in the for sale section and state a price you'll prob have some interest. -
This would be an ideal little rim fire scope. I find 12 to 16 power is more than enough for a .22
-
H4350 until I run out😉

Harris Bipod Spikes
trucraft replied to Subsonic's topic in Suppressors / Moderators, Bipods, Anything else
I use some spikes on both my Harris. I asked a customer to knock them up on his lathe. He said it took less than an hour to make 2 sets. they're basic but work perfectly. I find they come into their own at this time of year when the ground if dry and quite hard. -
I'm not sure that's entirely true. Some game shoots are conservation minded. Most aren't and are only interested in one thing. I doubt more than 50% of shot pheasants even reach the food chain. Basc has done a lot for conversation but unfortunately it's not the reality of modern commersial shoots. The massive game farms that rear and sell the chicks arn't any better than chicken farms. I don't know how anyone can argue that realising 20000 + non native birds in a relatively small area can be beneficial to biodiversity😒 I agree that wild game managed right is the most ethical meat possible. I shoot and eat deer and vermin but also run a conservation based countryside management company.

I don't get any thing from the link!

It is a gamble that I wouldn't take for the sake of £600 difference to the Ultra Short. Unless I have some trusted feed back or hands on experience. Some good feed back on The Hide. I will look up the NX8 now.
-
Well... not so much!
-
Looking for any feed back. I'm not quite in the market for a new scope yet but when the time comes. Looking at a compact lightweight scope. pm11 ultra short would be first choice but the Vudu has my attention. https://www.thehuntingedge.co.uk/shop/eotech-vudu-5-25x50-ffp-rifle-scope/

I also have two loads, amax & 95grn BT load for my 6x47L The Nosler shoot well for me at 3000fps. Both are very affective on deer.
-
Eld-x have a longer bearing surface and therefore act as a total different bullet. Particularly regards to pressure and COAL.
-
What are the other 2 just for comparison?
-
Nice group, is that a representative size group for that load? Bet that's a sweet little varmint caliber. What bullet are you using at what speed? Have you got a photo of a loaded.round?
-
I have never asked about custom cut outs. Worth an email though.

I use these guys. https://www.anyfoam.co.uk/quote.php?product=rectangle&chosen=rectangle&variable=5789&calc=1070.9667088625517&thickness=50&len=270&width=1300&unit=mm
