  1. If there's going to be a Dads' Army, bags being Sgt Wilson! "Oh I say my good chap, would you mind awfully stop pointing your gun at me as someone might get hurt."
  2. After reading Al's response, it provided an excellent overview and answered questions that I was unsure about the tuner/muzzle brake I have. The main one being do you tune or have you tuned during a competition. After Al's answer (via SMS) 'the penny dropped'! Cheers Al
  3. As I have a bespoke tuner fitted to my heavy gun it was very enlightening to hear the comments of serious testing as mentioned in the podcast as opposed to reading other shooters views on websites like 6BR regarding how tuners work etc. I know that you need to find the most accurate charge weight first and cartridge overall length etc. Then moving the tuner to fine tune which might improve group sizes (or not) and their positioning, but I think that in the real world there are other influences (wind strength being the main one for me) to give me confidence to say my tuner has made it more accurate. As I do not have the laboratory facilities to prove it conclusively works and need my money for other things (women, holidays etc) than bullets, powder etc it can stay on the barrel and locked in one position unless I decide to do a non analytical test for a bit of fun in a tunnel range. After all it's just a hobby really!
  4. Yes. Error code EX0 shows when trying to view latest content etc
  5. Further to Catch-22s suggestion I ordered the item in the photo. It arrived yesterday from the States and have bolted it to a table I wasn't using much. Works a treat and very pleased with it.
  6. Hi Gareth, bank transfer preferred. PM me and I will give you my bank details. As for delivery I am sure we can sort it out ok. Hope you're fit and well. Les
  7. Second hand portable press for sale. Not used anymore. Mainly used to full length resize my .284 Win and could probably resize larger cases. Spare turret top as well. See photo with a .284 Win case. £100 plus postage.
  8. Harrell Precision portable reloading press 7/8 x 14 (see photo). Suitable for 6BR size cases or similar. £60 Can bring to Diggle or postage at cost. Drop me a pm if interested. Thanks
  9. Based upon Catch-22s suggestion of a wooden portable frame, I was viewing a video from the USA and noticed that he was using a steel framed mounting and this could be the way forward. So thanks Catch-22
  10. Thanks for the info on the portable set up and well worth a look
  11. Can anyone recommend a solid wood bench (Brand/Manufacturer etc) to replace a cheap workmate I have my reloading press bolted to. It is showing signs of wear and flexes quite a bit when I full length resize my cases. Any info appreciated Les
