You pay by the hour for electronic targets , which depending on day of the week are 100,200,300,600,900,1000 Or, you book a lane for half a day/full day and choose fallback distances. They then allocate a lane at each distance for you and you choose how much time you spend on each one. Not all distances are available every day You may get a mix of ranges, Short Siberia 100/200, Century 1-600, Stickledown 8-1200 You rarely get everything you want on one session. You'll also need a marker if you are using electronics. Add £100 ish per day £50-60 half day Or, take someone with you that knows what they are doing and agrees to mark for you.

I'll take the mount and the scope and am nearby in Hants to collect

I'll take the scope and mount and am nearby to collect. Have sent you a PM

I have quantities of 1500, 1200 & 600 for all my calibres. Ask for what you want and justify why. It is for them to say why you can't. 250 is a very small quantity

Might help to specify calibre?

If someone just wanted the rifle, I would be happy to discuss the scope on it's own. cheers

I'll take them please, will be at Bisley Saturday

As long as you describe it properly it surely doesn't matter what you sell, or at what stage of use. I could advertise ten times fired cases, it doesn't mean someone would buy them, but there is nothing to stop me selling them. I wouldn't bother resizing and removing the primer, just show them as they are.

Hampshire are currently around 6mths for a variation.......................

Get Valkyrie or Bradley Arms to build you one to your spec.

The £5 is the cost of using the zero range, not for the target. They won't let you rock up with your own target and zero for free.

This is the best article I have found for wind reading. It takes some reading and re-reading, but it is very informative. Snipershide Wind Reading

An Armalon made one being used on the Ash ETR Range this weekend.

Give Southpoint Firearms a ring, or Armalon https://www.southpointfirearms.co.uk/search.php?search_query=L1A1&section=product MFL Classic Firearms also supply Armalon made rifles. You won't find a cheap one, but they are certainly around for less than £3k.

Manufacturers guide gives loads for 69grain bullets, start lower and work up

with 77 TMKs, mine Chrono at 2730 out of an 18" barrel at 24.5 grains of RS52, with no obvious pressure signs. I suppose there are bound to be variations in different rifles, so the OP should build up etc etc

Buy some RS52. Use 24.5 grains and it will be bang on.

Does the ATX use standard AW/AT mags or does it have it's own type?

Anyone buying from Auction needs to check the fees before they bid and work out what your bid will cost. Typically they are between 28% and 35% depending on auctioneer. As for posting, you aren't just paying the cost of postage, you are paying for the time it takes an employee to get the item, package it, address it, get the postage sorted and dispatch it. Employees cost a lot of money to employ. Most auctioneers use external packaging and posting companies, they will have cost you kore than £20 + vat. I just paid £40 for an item to be collected, packaged and posted. VAT is VAT, they can't not charge it. As for if the item works, it's a case of caveat emptor. If it is misdescribed then you have recourse, but buying unseen from auction, you pay your money, you take you chance. Have you been ripped off? No - you just failed to read the small print before bidding. We've all done it.

I'll take the two Blackdog 22LR Mags please.

PM sent re barrel clamp

Some info here The Dirty Dozen

Ring Dave Wylde at Valkyrie Rifles

No problem

Probably not. The SMK/TMK are designed to be seated at mag length 2.25/2.26" They'll shoot fine at those COAL
