Top notch man, stock is in perfect condition. Superb seller with great comms.

Hi, I've not really had any issues with Hornady brass. I am reloading once fired .308 cases and the biggest bugbear so far has been removing the primer crimp!

You're not the first person who's had issues with Hornady brass though and there seems to be a bad batch or two by reading things online.

@atlanticity PM sent re stock.

I contacted RCBS about a set of new 7.62x39 dies from which I do neat, uniform striations along the neck from the FL sizer. Looked like a purposefully applied crimp. I contacted them, sent photos of the cases, and 5 weeks later (after I'd purchased a new die set) their people contacted me to say that I was using the die incorrectly and that it needed cleaning. I stripped it an tossed it in the trash. Forty five years of using RCBS equipment over. ~Andrew

That's pretty shocking from them. This thread unfortunately seems to detail their slide into mediocrity. I'll stick to cheap and cheerful Lee dies but hold onto my old 5-0-5 scales.

Would have been nice to have tagged me, but thanks anyway.

@bolte I'm interested in the Turner NM AWS. What length and what colour is it?

...so a slightly cynical recap, the Army wanted (or had inflicted on them?) the need for a new rifle in 5.56.

Had to be British so we designed the Mk.1 SA80 that did not work very well, so we employed the Germans (H&K) to fix it for more than the cost of buying all new Diemaco's that worked?

Your tax ££ working for you? 😉

 

There's a little more to the H&K connection. BAE owned H&K between 1999-2002, so work was done by H&K for Enfield.

NOPE
spiral staircasers at Enfield stole the design from Sterling!
.....there can be only one....






20-rd & 40-rd magazines
direct piston design
can be fired with stock closed
....the rifle Stoner designed to get around the faults of his AR-15

Yep, that's a beauty. You can see the similarities when you see the internals - cut 'n paste job. 

Geez... still looks like a 70s arms race runner up... 🤐

Something like this - the Area 419 Maverick? Seems like it would be ideal for PRS, I wouldn't like to stalk with it! 

An obese fox?! Maybe a hybrid - a Boxer.

Probably a badger covered in dust/dirt from digging in. 

These are now all sold, thanks to all who purchased. 

300 cases left.
