  1. True, I forgot that it is made in Australia!
  2. FYI - It’s not illegal to import or sell, it’s purely the fact that a material which was used in its manufacture, 2 -4 dinitrotoluene, has been deemed obsolete due to REACH legislation, hence it can no longer be manufactured.
  3. CTR, it’s a good balance between hunting & target. Yes the mags are more expensive however they’re also far more robust and suited to range use. You may find that weight does matter later on..
  4. 5.11 Tactical Bail out Bag in Flat Dark Earth. Perfect condition, can be used as a range bag or for general out and about. Sold Thanks, Andy
  5. I don’t know sorry, I left the club 2 - 3 years ago when they stopped shooting at Kingsbury.
  6. So which clubs have previous members moved onto / which clubs are still shooting at Kingsbury? It’s a shame to see what has become over the club, I throughly enjoyed my membership while they were still shooting at Kingsbury.
  7. A Sako TRG 22 phosphated rail and 3x screws, I’m not sure if these will fit the T3?This came fitted to my used TRG so I don’t if it’s a genuine Sako item or aftermarket. No longer required as I’ve splashed out on a Spuhr direct mount. £50 Posted
  8. + 1 for Bott. Very good industrial quality but they don’t come cheap.
  9. I missed the part of lead lapping the barrel. Bullet to bore fit is absolutely critical and on .223 you’ve got a 0.025mm tolerance on bullet diameter, this should serve to illustrate this point. Remember that to remove pits you have to remove the material surrounding them, thus increasing the diameter of the barrel. There is a very good chance that you’ll wreck your barrel if you lead lap it!
  10. Any damage is already done so I wouldn’t worry too much about trying to clean any more evidence of corrosion away, if it wasn’t scrubbed off by the bullets I doubt you’ll shift it with a bronze brush. All you can do now if keep on top of it by running an oiled patch through before storage and leave the dry patch until you’re ready to use it again.
  11. Good choice, I had the stainless 308 CTR and it was a brilliant rifle. Sold it for the stainless laminate hunter version for stalking and plan to buy another CTR in 6.5mm for targets.
