  1. True, vaccination is a way of building up herd immunity without all the problems of the "herd" getting the disease. David.
  2. I'm locked down in Wales so I don't know what changes will happen to us but it always seems odd to me that "working from home" is so desirable but if your computer goes **** up you can't get it fixed replaced because the electronics stores are closed. Seems it is just a method of getting us to all shop at Amazon who don't pay much tax rather than shopping local where they supply local jobs and pay reasonable amounts of tax. David.
  3. Have a bump on me. Mossberg pumps are amongst the most reliable of them all. David.
  4. And you can shoot it off the left shoulder to use cover better, but what sort of a sensible idea is that? David.
  5. I didn't see anything like this level of angst when the Met shot an unarmed man numerous times on the London underground! Perhaps Brazillian Lives don't Matter? David.
  6. You could try this? https://www.topgear.com/car-news/suvs/toyota-land-cruiser-namib-tremendous David.
  7. Would it not feed in a CZ 527 built for triple 2? David.
  8. Had mine pillar bedded, when ranges open in my vicinity I will zero it. David.
  9. No trouble at all. Just the shotgun rods which are very cheap let you twist the brush in the chamber. Of course I don't know if this is improtant to you. Best wishes, David.
  10. A 410 shotgun brush works in a 223 and may be cheaper. David.
  11. "Good luck. I'll hold my breath.~Andrew" If you do that "you can't breathe" Sorry, couldn't resist the bad taste moment! David.
  12. I would be tempted to varnish the MDF all over with one of the varnishes made for floors. Very tough and water resistant. If you are worried about the surface being over smooth and not gripping your bipod sprinkle a little sand onto the wet second coat. (Practice the sprinkling trick in advance, when I did something similar I used a cheap tea strainer but just shaking it off a piece of flat ply might work) Best wishes, David.
  13. This guy will hire out a chronograph, I think it is a magneto job. http://new.ersg.com/ David.
  14. If the lead was long enough could it be attached to the action so as not to affect the barrel, but more "pushy" than on the stock? David.
  15. I guess it may be copyrighted but this is the sort of thing that would be really useful if it could be attached as a downloadable pdf file. David.
  16. I wouldn't worry too much about fluoride, it is good for your teeth. I think the thing that worries me about tap water is high levels of oestrogen from "the pill", there are quite a lot of fish "transitioning" without any choice in the matter. David.
  17. I have to agree with the above, I have posted both 'scope mounts and choke tubes as pipe fittings! Which I always think, well they are in a manner of speaking. David.
  18. A Silky saw is good. David.
  19. This can be a useful trick. If the slip is only just long enough for the rifle sans moderator you have to put the moderator in the pocket on the side of the slip or somewhere where it can cool and condense stuff to its hearts content. David.
  20. For what it is worth, I was born a lefty (of that age bracket who were forcibly changed over when I first went to school) and with a left master eye. As a result when I shoot a shotgun, where eye dominance is very important, I shoot left handed. Eye dominance is much less of a problem rifle shooting as for normal shooting you close the other eye. So unless his right eye is seriously weak or other problems not easily corrected with glasses or contacts, gently persuade him to shoot a rifle right handed. So much kit is right handed and I would bet a bit that most estate rifles and club loaners are right handed. Funnily enough there is another benefit, because the brain seperates the two actions, shotgun left shoulder keep the swing moving, rifle right shoulder keep the rifle still. Hope this helps a bit, David.
  21. I've seen and handled this rifle. A really nice and well looked after bit of kit. David.
