thnx catch im off to look at reviews of heated sonic cleaners - like you say i think iv accidentally breathed in the harmful dust before which could be contributing to odd health , i ideally need one for cleaning carburetta parts too so sounds ideal . iv always thought about getting one but never did .

hi folks , after some advice on what i can use as theres new ish pins and now chips being used for brass cleaning . I must say i have a vibratory lyman turbo 1200 so the std type . Im unsure if i can use pins or chips in this - trouble is i think the chips are supposed to be used wet etc. if possible id like to switch to chips as they seem to be the best at brass cleaning . iv read quite alot of differing stuff but thought id just ask here to my darling forum members 😇 thanks in advance

depends what are you wanting ? ultimate precision or average ? im not saying lee wont deliver good accuracy . iv used them when i started loading but i only use redding type S bushing for the neck . a body / shoulder bump die . and competition seating die . they will cost way more than lee but you know they produce straight ammo as in 3thou run out worst case . so it may be a price factor to it . lee is prob worth a try , as i could produce really good accuracy once you have found / tested a good few loads ? but good luck to it

Nice mini mauser action, i though my 527 was a bargain 220 : ( what make is the rail ? id prefer this to say a factory tikka t3 . Nice looking rifle . simon6ppc on tube uses the tmk in his 223 sako with great affect. Think he's the same guy on here with same name . Good luck with development i hope its a tack driver.

Probably one of the best hunting videos
gunner replied to LONG RANGE CAPT's topic in General Discussion
Quite amazing but can't help thinking it may be less traumatic and quicker with a well placed bullet. I think most of us on here hunt in one way or another - just dont like seeing any animal suffer. eg- Why im against 17 for foxy personaly-.. But realize it may have a place in certain countrys / senario . Atb -
TY terry i did think it must be a small company - good for him being busy too at these times

Love the tungsten finish, im wondering why is there a shortage of the sentinel? If there's demand there - which im sure there is ?

You should ideally make a few test rounds and watch for pressure signs on the case head and primer edge especially . If you reach high pressure signs on either thats not your safe forming load in my mind . You should reduce . BUT you may not get the case shoulder to form 100% so a second firing may be needed. Thats basically what i had to do on my first Ackley many year ago - i personaly wouldn't do another .. Good luck - stay safe ..

If you dont use the vld seater bit u could end up crushing the tips of your bullets slightly as they more pointier / longer etc . Iv know some people just strip there std seater and machine a deeper hole to allow the extra space needed for vlds - think this what your refer too ?

Older thread, but just read the previous post - you are mistaken as iv never owned a S&B but iv had that before ppl thinking iv sold them something when its someone else on a different forum but same / similar name? atb Tim

A card with some details Wouldn't hurt , containing what species and type of control you cater for . Fully insured etc , email , mobile , eg: E.Fudd Wabbit season etc lol And knock on doors and ask . if its yes or maybe hand them a card. If they slam the door in your face, open letter box and say something like : Thanks for your time your a wonderful human being - then get yer coat - about turn n carry on to the next one. Don't wear cammo when visiting, a good appearance does help.

Here is picture , looks like in thousands , you won't break this its proper hard steel, not zink / alloy mixed type soft cheese. Once set up after a few minutes its feel and use is better by far than cheaper types
