Hi , a bit of a strange request - are you in a hurry to sell it please ?

The reason nothing to do with the rifle or price , i know the rifle and its capability (can remember when they were new , does that mean me getting old ?)

No seriously its to due with obtaining a variation and know its going to be a very long process as usual (why, why, why) answers on a post card .

And judging by the last one seems a lifetime .

You need to live in Warwickshire, 7 days for a variation.

Been like it for the last couple of days+

W11 with Opera/Chrome.

Windows 10 on a PC for me.

25 shots at 25 Metres...Anschutz action with lilja barrel.

According to this website, you would need at least an 8 mm screw to tighten to those values.

Cheaper options, well pleased with mine.

Yes, I would have been interested in the bag !!

If 1066 does not buy, I will, thank you.

Yes I know a bullet of .220" creates the hole, but it does not cleanly cut the card like a paper hole punch.

The cards edges close up slightly, giving the appearance of a smaller hole.

The size of the hole you can actually see through, is about .175".

See attached picture.

Think you need to zero your calipers!

Yes, a single .22lr bullet punched through card will measure just over .200"

2. Specifically with the potential control on cases and bullets the wording really concerns me here. It doesn't say 'manufacture of unauthorised ammunition'. It says 'unauthorised quantities of ammunition'. So if you have 250 rounds on your FAC, that means you can only have 250 bullets, 250 primers, 250 cases and enough powder for 250 rounds; any more that this would allow you to manufacture 'unauthorised quantities of complete rounds of ammunition'.

Be interesting to see how you would buy 1250 grains, at 5 grains a pop for a .357 magnum.

I would imagine everyone would be acting illegally at a stroke, if this came into force.

I have quoted this from the above link......from....Controls on possession of component parts of ammunition.

"Only the main components of ammunition are already controlled (propellants and primers). The possession of propellants is controlled under the Explosives Regulations 2014 which require that, with certain exceptions, anyone wanting to acquire or keep explosives must hold an explosives certificate issued by the police."

As I understand it, I only require an explosives licence to store and transport my Black powder, and not for propellants, or have I misunderstood.

That's impressive, have you tried it at 100yds?

Thanks......Covid19 willing, it will be in about 2 weeks time.

Here is my Cooper TRP3 Model 57-M

RWS R50, best batch I have so far tried

Would a counter balance on the right hand side not  help ?

Have sent you a PM.
