  1. Magaizines arrived today and in mint condition. Thanks Jay5 much appreciated
  2. Just picked 1 up today. Serioulsy impressive rifles. Good luck with the sale.
  3. Received yesterday mate. My old man and my father in law were well chuffed
  4. I've found all my annies shoot well with both eley club and match. Unless I'm shooting a comp I just use Eley club for practice. Though to be fair the Eley match is worth the extra point it sometimes gives you on the card.
  5. Lovely setup there mate. Time to put some more lead down range to see what it can really do.
  6. Great shooting there Especially at 200 yards in the wind. Its definitely a shooter mate
  7. Thanks again I'll have a look at those later. I'll start a new thread once I get on with it. Just ordered a tub of devcon and will decide if I'm going to do it in my garage with the small milling machine, or go whole hog and do it in work on the Bridgeport mill. Hopefully be able to do a detailed thread on how I get on with a few pics added in.
  8. 300m is really good going mate. I've got my trigger down to 8oz, though I'm used to that from target prone shooting when in my teens. Breath on it and its away.
  9. Ok I've decided to go ahead and bed the rifle, not only because I want to get the best accuracy, but have now found out that the current bedding area of the rifle has been damaged by the previous owner and is not sitting properly. Originally I had thought that my scope or rings were the issue but delving further you can clearly see and feel. The stock has been squashed at 1 end.
  10. Stunning rifles mate and it'll be more than up to the job. Great fun and seriously good for training with for bigger calibres (mine isnt the MPR model but my dads is) I just need to get mine to shoot properly now. Previous owner had managed to damage the bedding area on the wooden stock, so need to go down the glass bedding route to fix it.
  11. Loving those stocks. Almost went down the route of. The T1X and was going to enquire about 1.of your stocks to go with it. Might still go down that route if I cant get my anschutz to shoot properly
  12. Thanks all I'll have a look at whats out there online and use my own intuition, along with the great info given here. I've got a small milling machine out in the garage to use to mill out the areas for bedding.
  13. Also maybe worth mentioning that I am a toolmaker to trade and work with CNC machines every day.
  14. Hi guys All great info and really appreciated. The rifle I have is a 1416 D HB wooden thumbhole stock if that makes any difference
  15. Hi all I want to bed the action on my 22lr Anschutz as I only use the rifle for target shooting, and want to get the best accuracy I can out of the rifle. Can anyone recommend a bedding compound, and any tips for bedding the action would be greatly appreciated Thanks
  16. My dad has a Hawke Sidewinder 6-24 on his MPR and is more than ok in comps with it too. It was my scope till he borrowed it to see if he liked it. Needless to say I havent seen it since.
  17. Thanks guys Lots of great info here for me to have a think about. As I expected, a bit of thinking time required before I delve in any further. Though I have got my heart set on a T3 action to start things off.
  18. I'd be looking at a T3 action rather than the 595 only down to stock options available
  19. Thanks Looks like my intial thoughts on what to go for were half decent. Just need to decide on how I want the rifle to look now.
  20. Yes Terry you assume correct. I'd be looking at having a nice barrel to go on the action. I'll speak to a gunsmith about having the work done. Not sure on what twist rate to go for with the 6mmBr yet though.
  21. Hi Terry Yes I will be shooting with the local club and out to 600 yards. They have a 200 yard range to get things started with also. I'm thinking of going down the semi-custom route with the likes of a tikka action. I already have a decent scope sitting there ready, so dont have that expense to worry about.
  22. Hi all I'm going to get into CF target shooting this year, and would like some input in which calibre I should be looking at for a first time CF shooter (shot CF before but not in a precision sense) I have thought about something like the 6mmBr but would be interested in what others think. Thanks in advance
  23. The 6mmBr is something that I'm really taking a fancy to. We only shoot out to 500 at the moment and I bet this would be ideal for the job.
