Montey

Looking good for this year then mate

Hi, ive got the original  Digi ward scope has anyone got a manual or even know the torque settings for the mounts please? Had it all written down somewhere I can’t find my notes. 

Thanks for the correction that’ll teach me to proof read.

yes grains 

Hi I take it that’s a group shot at a hundred yards? I recommend you watch the Scott Satterlee load development YouTube I’ve used this on every calibre I reload for from 22-250 to 300wsm and it works.Going over max charge weight is pushing your luck I’ve seen the results and it’s not good what you might get away with on a cold day can soon change on a hot summers day.

I for one have great respect for any advice given by  Laurie when it comes to reloading I dont know him personally but have shot Fclass when he was also competing as well as read his published articles  he is very well respected.I use CFE-223 in my 22-250 but I think it’s no longer available.

my advise would be take the time to work your load up in .2 of a gram increments and with the 22-250 and 243win I only shoot two then wait for the rifle to cool rite down so I get a true speed.

I’ve used wax cotton trousers for bramble bashing for years but I’m guessing there’s a better option not worried about cost for a quality thorn proof option any recommendations please?

Had some good advice on here and been privately messaged as well as in person at Bisly in person thanks 

will find time this week hopefully to try the 7-270 again 

Thanks for your advice just goes to show the value of this foram I will ask around this week before trying RL23 in the new rifle and new for me calliber 

Hi I’m running out of time to reload for next week I’m trying the 180 hybrid in my new 7-270 wsm using Reloader 23 any one got a starting load Allents site doesn’t mention this particular bullet but does say 68g with another 180 which seems high I have got written down 66g as a a start point but a completely new powder for me as Vit165 was not very impressive 

If it helps I have the black sun dark engine covert from Clive ward at Night vision Uk it works with  all three of my Drones so including my Drone x15 very well out well past 250yards  on a clear night I’ve shot two fox’s at just past 300yards (2 separate nights) with this and the Drone x10 on a good clear night and I’m not a fan of shooting much past 200yards at night to be fair.

The 165 didn’t work that well in this gun I found R/S 62 works well but i already have 25kg of RL26 on account of hearing it could be the new short cut 

I could only get 208g hybrids no 210g or 215g I could find ,one reason I’ve not been out look forward to see you this Sunday mate.

Thanks for the help when I’ve got this sorted I’ll post what I’ve found out

im up at Bisly at the weekend with some other Fclass guys who I think are trying this powder I’ve been told so hopefully I’ll have some good advice 

Hi any body got a safe starter load pushing 208 Bergers using RL26 nothing on the web site ? Using the load in my Fclass rifle I just want a safe start weight I can work up from.

any help greatly appreciated 

My club didn’t shoot fclass so no good at all 

a good friend who’s is very well thought of helped me 

my point is with out a helping hand you won’t be ably to join either 

thinking about it it makes an argument for mentoring but there is the once a year training course 

I have a friend I will happy recommend and help when he finally retires and has the time 

So do  what do you need to become a member of the HAO CLUB ?

i needed a sponsor but that was 5 plus years ago 

Dam spot the mistake 

215 high Breda !!

I have a large Amoy of RL 26 for my 300wsm Fopen pushing 115 hi Breda and now 208 hi breads any starting loads ?

the RL 23 for my 7-270 WST some 184g then 180g any starter loads please 

I will talk to people in the league I shoot with as well 

no i dear any advice please ? Not been out this year saving what I’ve got for the euros mate

Problem is you won’t get to join either fclass leave or the Dorset without a a sponsor 

actually not sure if that stands for the league 

It’s really simple start at the lowest recommended load and work up in ingraments of .2g if there’s a problem stop it’s not hard I’ve done it with many different powders and for other people 

if you change one thing start at the bottom and work up 

don’t change primers case bullet/head just don’t with out starting again it’s that simple 

I really want to know who is going to be writing and delivering the NRA course and what experience they have and what accreditation body has signed them off I don’t know if the NRA can do that them selfs I can see a time we’re all Fclass or any HME card holder have to have done a NRA reloading course  

I can see a time factory only loads are shot of course given the history with RWS and GGG that won’t be a problem,

Just sold two shot guns to private individuals I found the online system really easy to use on the first day but it wouldn’t load on the next day I left a message with them then went back to it later in the day and it all worked.

im not a fan of on line only but the Kent forms are quite easy 

I’m in Kent sold one of my Fclass open 300wsm had a phone call to discuss in about a minute then sent in my licence and had it back in a week 

Bit confused why they had to ring me but a quick conversation and job done 

speaking to any gun shop in Kent and they are getting phone calls every day because people are giving up shooting because of the online only system Kent now have one shop are considering offering a service to help with the online system.

Why aren't the affects the same? I have no idea 

i leave my mod on because of were I live on a farm it gets used in a hurry out the office window on one of my bait sites on magpies ect I have to be as quick as possible.

I've never removed the mod on my .22 unless it's to pul a bore snake through it. It's an old Sako Fin fire shoots great.

same with my .17hmr only that gets a proper clean every time it shoots over ten rounds.

all centre fire rifles mods off asap!

I've been lucky and found a really good as new condition Drone 15 I'm really pleased with it I've got it on my Dolphin 223 truck rifle sighted in and ready to use. 

Im moving it to the Dolphin 243 next i always use the 223 to test with as when I move a new scope or NV it's pretty well there for zero it's cheaper and time efficient for me.

im very impressed with the performance of the Drone 15 using a lazer from Night vision store uk almost invisible.

Thanks for the post with YouTube footage of the Diger 50 I believe I quickly looked at it but the link has now gone.

from memory it was looking promising I like the adjustable magnification I'll look for more footage on YouTube 

i hope it didn't get removed from here

I'm thinking Drone x15 but it means finding a good second hand one

hard to believe no one has made something better in the time the Drone was effectively discontinued.

Ive not yet been impressed with any thing from Pulsar my mates have had.
