  1. Do you still need to do the 12wpm morse test, or is it mainly just voice com now?

    Sorry, I did my best!

    Kroil

    I bought a can of Kroil a few years ago to try to release a rusted union. I might as well have used water. The Kroil got dumped in the shed, and I bought THIS from Wilko - it's brilliant!
  4. I've had several items made by Linda, and she does great work.

    CV-19 Lessons

    I was exactly the same, and I know a few people who all had the same problem over the Christmas/New Year period. I don't know if it was Covid 19, but I don't know that it wasn't, either. I'm guessing that Covid 19 has been around for longer than we have been told.
  6. Be on the safe side, and take it off. There's no point in tempting fate.
  7. Hello .... welcome to UKV!
  8. He should buy her a new Jaguar. With any luck, it'll bite her head off and he can get back to being Harry again. As it is, he's totally pussywhipped.
  9. I seem to remember somewhere in the dark and distant past that I paid for a firearm in full whilst applying for a 141 variation. I put a rifle in px, and paid the balance, then went home to wait for the variation to come through. Or perhaps my addled brain is playing tricks again?
  10. Great question, Gerster ......... whoever decides to make 'em can definitely put my name down for one.
  11. Thank you to everyone for posting all the video clips etc. Absolutely fascinating slo-mo.
  12. Hello .... welcome to UKV!
  13. I have a 457 MTR, 453 Premium, 452 FS and a 455 varmint. The 457 MTR is just about the most accurate, followed by the 455, but there really isn't much in it. What sort of target shooting do you actually want to do? If you're just trying to get the best groups that you can, then any of the CZ's will work if you feed them decent ammunition (Eley Match etc). If it's competitions that you're interested in, then look for an Anschutz Match 54 rifle. 😉

    Hello Gaz .... I'm glad you made it across!
  16. Yes, all single shot, so definitely no good for your needs.
  17. Most 54 series rifles with a heavy barrel e.g., 1413, 1613, 1813 can be used for benchrest without having to fit a new barrel.

    Hello .... welcome to UKV!
  19. A lot depends on what you mean by 'target shooting'.
  20. The Falcon X50 is an excellent scope for the money - especially with its Japanese optics. https://www.opticswarehouse.co.uk/falcon-x50-10-50x60-long-range-sfp-moa-1-8-moa-rifle-scope
  21. Thank you to everybody who has highlighted this pair of scammers. I am normally a fairly cautious sort of person, especially where firearms adverts are concerned, but it just shows how easy it could potentially be to get drawn into something beyond our control. I hope the police follow this up, but I won't hold my breath.
  22. Dave, how much (obviously very +/-) would a bedding job like that cost?
