  1. Doesn't always list everything he does so worth emailing but I know he does them. Here https://www.praesidiarifles.co.uk
  2. Now you're talking😎
  3. Just don't use oak or sweet chestnut. As tanin react with the brass. Discover from personal experience 😉
  4. £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.
  5. 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.
  6. This would be an ideal little rim fire scope. I find 12 to 16 power is more than enough for a .22
  7. H4350 until I run out😉
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. 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/
  12. 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.
  13. Eld-x have a longer bearing surface and therefore act as a total different bullet. Particularly regards to pressure and COAL.
  14. Thanks guys for all the info. Just what I was asking for. I have a couple of good options now, just need to sort timing and family commitments.
  15. Roundhouse looks good. I get the impression there are only a few per year but I may be wrong. I will email Tiff. Thanks
  16. Thanks. Have you been, any feedback? I'm considering them and WMS but looking for people's experiences before I take a 6hr drive to Wales.
  17. Me and a mate fancy a days longrange shooting probably with tuition. Looking for something little more formal and beyond the limitations of my own ground. I know of a couple of options but looking for peoples recommendations. Where? Who ? Value for money? Thanks.
  18. What are the other 2 just for comparison?
  19. 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?
  20. I have never asked about custom cut outs. Worth an email though.
  21. 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
