  1. There are a lot of fakes out there. I've got a set I was previously sold as real, and never used, but are well below the qual I'd expect. They look a lot like the set on the right there. Could you post a pic of the real ones as a reference for people?
  2. There's a specific card for 223. No need to mess with the .308 card there. But as stated above for 6.5 it'll get you close enough.
  3. I've had a few enquiries. But none seen through. Happy to discuss on price if that's stopping people. Also happy to split out the rail sections.
  4. Welcome to the joy of long range shooting. Much to be learnt, and unfortunately the further you shoot the more it appears to be black magic... Seriously some of the people wind reading on Stickledown are like shamans or something I swear!
  5. Gratefully received. Thanks Gav. Great communication, and posted promptly after payment. Couldn't ask for more.
  6. As per title I have a Teir-One 35mm dia, 0 MOA, Long Saddle Mono-mount for sale. Almost perfect condition, boxed with accessories etc. Also comes with side picatinny rail, and top picatinny rail adaptors. (~£30 each new). Looking for £185 posted.
  7. Does that mean RRP or how much you picked them up for. I'm under on my recent acquisition of a Tikka Tac but I'm guess as the RRP is up at ~£1800 puts it outside the bracket?
  8. Interested on @Laurie's opinion of RS 70 for the creedmore cartridge . Everyone seems to be talking RS60/62 but 70 (while a full load) seems like it will push things ~140gr mark quite well from my looksee on QL & Gordons.
  9. Where did you go in the end @Trigger73? I'm seriously considering the Vulcan currently, as apparently the IOR glass is comparable to Nightforce, if not better. (although I'm not sure if that's true of Vulcan glass as it's the bottom of their range). It's between that and the Vortex PST 2, as their both about the same price point. Certainly rather the IOR recital, (not a fan of the full tree lit up). I'd love to be able to actually look through them both side by side, but I'm not aware of any shops within a hour or so of me (Bristol) that stock them. Naturally Vortex has it's no-quibble warranty, but there's a 30 year warranty on the IOR, and we'll all be shooting fancy electronic ballistic scopes by that point anyways.
  10. Thankfully on this one pi comes out in the wash. As long as your definition of "better" is the area of the potential impact , then yes a 0.5 MOA group is 4 times "better" than a 1 MOA group.
  11. Honestly. IMO the 3.5% from paypal "goods and services" is nothing compared to the piece of mind it gives that you're covered from this kind of thing. I use it pretty much every time. If you're buying something on the forum, odds are you're already getting a damn good deal!
  12. Novice - Could you measure the scabbard (inc. butt cover) for me? What's the longest rifle it will take? Eberlestock only give the dims for the scabbard section I think.
  13. Knew you guys would know. Thanks! You can put a few rounds through it at Severnside if you're ever down that way 😁 Any thoughts on the quality of them?
  14. Hi folks, Challenge for you. Can anyone identify this barrel from the markings? I figure the cougar/jaguar on the end may be a trade stamp? Cheers in advance, Rem
  15. Gazza, When did you purchase the ammo from the NRA? Also which batch/year does it say on the box? They should no longer be selling the 2019 ammo and have resorted to the remains of the 2018 batch (which had it's own problems). A bit of background; The past two years of GGG have has serious issues, to the extent of people not entering the Imperial competition due to the variation in the ammunition. After investigation the 2019 batch was found to have 'some' (~1/10) overcharged primers, which was causing elongation & weakening of some the cases and in some tight chambers extractor failures. I can dig out the report if you're interested. Worth noting that it shoots extremely accurately as long as it doesn't break your rifle... For any reloading activity it's strongly advised to measure case lengths post firing and remove any that appear uncharacteristically long. The 2018 batch, while not dangerous, was found to have some non-concentric cores in the bullet heads which resulted in erroneous shots (possibly what you're observing), although I can't recall anything about anyone identifying an issue with powder weight/combination, although I'm pretty sure I've got that data somewhere, so will have a look. TlDr; I would advise against using either 2018 or 2019 GGG if you're looking for safe & accurate ammo. But also please do report your findings to the NRA as they can add it to the wealth of data the target rifle guys have gathered in various investigations. Fingers crossed for the 2020 batch... Rem
  16. Gutting if they have. Convenient range for a lot of us, as long as you could use a club to get access. I know there was the issue with larger calibers, but hadn't heard anything specific about Rogiet. If it's danger area related (the public footpath/severn), I wonder if it will effect Severnside as well? Please update if you hear anything and I'll ask around as well.
  17. Have you got a plan for covering the rail with some kind of cheek piece?
  18. I'll take any at the moment, may end up being a bit more selective down the line, but if you're willing to share I'll have the whole back catalogue. (Ideally without any of the analysis, just raw images) As long as shot holes/marks are clearly visible it should be of use. If it's too many to email, are the on a google drive you could share? Thanks to all the others who have already send a load through
