  1. So the question; N140 or N150 if starting from scratch. My varget stock is drying up.
  2. I use a praesidia when I’m on a range. Works pretty well. It’s only been down range once 🤣
  3. This was good in my AR for plinking https://www.thecountryman.com/hornady-223-55gr-fmj-training-ammunition-9754el steel cases were a bit sticky but shouldn’t be a problem in a bolt action
  4. Does anyone know if they still make the American eagle hollow point .223 ammunition? i used it about 15 years ago and it was great in my tikka.
  5. The difference is paint texture. Older ones are smooth I believe.
  6. The faster twist causes a better expansion of the bullet.
  7. The 2156 is an updated 2155. Both have been referred to as Palma. i would be working from product code.
  8. How did you pick up on the issue? The question being has the rifle been use? Could it have picked up a foreign object that caused the issue?
  9. I have one of these. They are made by Alaska Guide Creations for Vortex. Very good quality pack.
  10. And if you have any sound mod supplied by Jackson rifles to exchange you will get 40% off the cost of the A-Tec
  11. About £700 for the ratchet lock model I own. I’m afraid I don’t know how much the AI .338 model is. But I expect it to be more than the ratchet lock as it is larger and will take longer to print.
  12. They are 3D printed from either Ti or Inconel. I have the smaller model which doesn’t go over the AI muzzle brake. It handles strings of fire with no hassle at all and it very quiet.
  13. Dolphin gun company did one from me several years ago. Although that was an aftermarket barrel. what make/model rifle are you looking to have the work carried out on? I currently have a 16” .308 with a very aggressively tapered barrel. Very light weight and provides very acceptable groups.
  14. Bruce, please can you elaborate on “long range” it’s quite subjective. what will the senopax have over the HIK micro thunder TQ50 considering the similar pricing.
  15. From reading several posts VAT is not being charged on items coming in from Canada. I believe after we left Europe a trade agreement was made.
  16. 110gr 6.5 and it’s called a controlled chaos, I have just taken delivery of a Sako 85 rebarreled by our own @Roninin 6mm creedmoor. Had I known about this bullet I would have had another 6.5 creedmoor. He just loves it and how consistent it is.
  17. I use N150 under Hornady ELD-M 130gr bullets. I have shot a few fallow with this load but have to be honest they are very frangible and cause excessive damage on chest shots. I would probably look for some more 120gr noslers and just replace the varget with N150.
  18. This is a positive. As it was Tiff who objected to any discussion on behalf of his then company on here. I still object to participants fees being used to fund participants going to the “world championship” when the top shooters are sponsored in the first place. Keeping costs down makes it more accessible to new comers and is far more likely to grow the sport. Elite athletes going to the Olympics have to find their own funding and I am sure the same goes for F class shooters attending international competition.
  19. Carlton Moor Tunnel range it’s pay and play. just outside Ashbourne
  20. It looks like there has been some changes to U.K. and Canada trade in April this year.
