Thanks for all the help folks.

He man in question is Mel B3 from UKV, And his wife's leatherwork is very nice indeed!

Cheers.

Yea, I always drive to get my rifles, as I see it as a trip out, even better by the sea! Then you never have issues with damaged goods then either. 👍

I bought a lovely hand made leather Tan wallet from himself and his wife, around 2 years ago, and it's still going strong and looks great!!

I'm trying to get hold of Him/Her , As a close friend is retiring, and has always liked my one-off wallet. And I said I'd sort him one from the same source as I got mine. Just a HUGE Presumption on my part....

Hope you folks can help.

Cheers.

And another.

I have one in 6.5CM. Great rifles!!

I'd appreciate a PM if you remember at some point.

Cheers

Got it!

Cheers Roy!

Thanks Roy.

Sorry to be dim, but am I right in thinking you bought one pre-made or adapted? Or you turned yours down yourself with a lathe?

Cheers

Hi folks,

The picture shows a Lyman case prep centre with a LEE Precision hand operated case trimmer screwed into one of the rotating points.

Would I be right in thinking someone has worked the Lee hand trimmer down in diameter on a lathe. Then cut the threads to fit the Lyman thread pattern enabling it to screw into one of the rotating positions on the Lyman case prep?

I presume it can't be bought, as I've looked. Feel free to make me look a prat and find one for sale.

And lastly, If it has to be made from the Lee trimmer, can anyone out there help me, by turning my trimmer down and threading it on your lathe.

If someone can help, then I would obviously pay for work.

Thanks all.

Thanks for all the info folks, much appreciated. 👍

Hi folks,

Are many people buying 5.56 ex-military ammo for plinking?? And can you buy the Milsurp in .223 Rem pressure too??

Or the 7.62mm NATO, and does it come in Milsurp .308 Win? 

Any info of where I can buy a few hundred rounds, Please?

Many thanks.

I ended up going with Bilt Hamber tinned wax in the end. Contains lots of Carnauba wax.

Not cheap, but cracking stuff!

Cheers folks.👍

Thanks both. Much appreciated!

I don't suppose anyone can recommend a good make and type of polish? They all seem to be liquid!

Chaz.

Hi folks,

I have a second car, but over time, as you can imagine, using it for shooting it cops a few scratches. I can get them out ok with different methods, but my old liquid Auto Glym polish isn't cutting it. I'm after anyone's knowledge about a polish they use that is a thick hardish wax in a tub with an applicator. The stuff we used to use before liquids came along. I'm after a good quality one which won't come after a couple of showers. I'm aware of "ceramic coatings", and have some. It's good quality polish I'm after.

Please could you let me know If you use a good brand and it's name.

Cheers.

Also asked elsewhere.

Anyone have any experience with GECO primers, as in comparison to the Magtec 9 1/2??

Hi folks,

I'm after some SRP, preferably Feder Gold Match GM205M.

But I would also consider others....

PM me if anyone has and you're around a max of 100 miles from South Worcester...

Cheers.

Chaz.

Thank-you Laurie. 

That was very useful info. I shoot out to a maximum of around 600 yards generally.

Clearly, getting hold of them could be a bit hit and miss from your information.

I may have found a place that sells my go to primer of Federal Gold match, and I'd need a 1000 small and a 1000 large.

But I'd need to confirm this tomorrow. I don't mind a bit of a drive to keep my reloads as they are, without fiddly adjustments.

Anyhow, thanks for the info, and I'll have a good read of the link you provided. 

Cheers.

Chaz.

Thanks both. 👍

Has anyone ever used or know anything about Magtech 9 1/2 large rifle primers. That's all I can find near me, and I'm getting desperate!!!

Sold pending the usual.

Offers considered.

Offers considered.

Go on then. I'll PM you.

Lovely quality rails, I have one on my TAC 1.

As above, this spotting scope is new and unused, and only mounted for the pictures.

It comes with the small tripod, but not the large tripod I use for my Chrono.

Having tried it when taking the pictures, it is crystal clear. I've never used it as I've always used my scope instead.

It is a Celestron C70 Mini Mak with a 70mm lense. And a magnification from X25 to X75. With markings of X25 X55 and X75.

There is also an adapter you can fit to give you a wider field of view as per the instructions, however, I have never tried it or fitted it.

I bought this new 2 years ago for £150, And as it is new and unused with box and instructions, I'm after £110 posted.
