  1. The rules say:- "You must state a price. This is not an auction site"
  2. Nope All sound moderators give -28 to -32 dB reduction, if their spiel is to be believed, but they all work to an extent Actual reduction is subjective, so pick one and be happy, and don't go constantly chasing the latest and maybe not so greatest all the time....and stop asking for 2nd hand ones, when in actual fact it's highly likely no one else has one Ase Utra are great
  3. I have 5 of each, all black and all brand new £225 each and postage at cost
  4. Nope, unless the bloodlust is too strong!
  5. A brilliant old boy, can’t help having a tear rolling down my cheek after seeing that
  6. When I had a 45/70 Marlin I loaded up some 405gn bullets with the max load for Varget, 55gns..........JESUS, my arm was dead for 2 days 😂
  7. Multiple piercings.....your firing pin is knackered
  8. That won't help if you're loading to mag length Load 20, find the longest one via OAL and seat that to 2.250" then lock the die off and seat all the rest and occasionally check to see none are longer than 2.260". If they are then reset the seater to 2.250" and leave it at that.
  9. That won’t do anything to help
  10. So the way I see it, a 1/2 MOA barrel is a 1/2 MOA barrel, no matter what type of rifling is inside it, or what kind of wrap is on the outside of it, and once a bullet has left the barrel, it no longer has any influence on said bullet. (Interior vs exterior ballistics or whatever) Therefore if the barrel can launch the bullets well then the deciding factors are not the barrel, but the marksmanship ability of the rifleman, and Josh is a fine shot. Repeatedly nailing a gong at 1400 is no easy thing, but sometimes you just find your groove and everything comes together
  11. He's talking about to the bullets tip
  12. Well done to young Ben, he's improving all the time and his Dad has turned out to be a formidable shot in CSR to boot
  13. A cannula is a needle and valve they stick in your hand to draw blood, a ring around a bullet is a cannelure Cannula Cannelure
  14. t's easy if you use a photo hosting thingy
  15. You'll definitely see pics, there were plenty of the last event, you probably won't see any results though.....which is a bit bizarre. I've searched the PRL website and the Facebook page and still can't find any...am I looking in the wrong place? 🤔
  16. Look, once again I have to explain this Michal is in Poland and uses a fair bit of GGG products
  17. There is currently an issue with Barnard extractors and some 2019 GGG .308 ammo, I would make enquiries and get this issue rectified before taking delivery
  18. I’ve never compared a rapid fire barrel to a slow fire one, so can’t say, I’m not a great believer in borescopes Setting back will only take care of the most extreme erosion in the throat, but there will be erosion everywhere, so you’re not getting a new barrel, just one where the wear will be accelerated Plus with the costs of gunplumbing/labour charges and proof, the actual cost of a blank at a couple of hundred quid is quite negligible Barrels are consumables, treat them as such
  19. In theory yes, but it’s never that easy Many barrel tenons have an undercut at the shoulder, so you would have to go back at least that far, that’s .620” on an AR and around 1” on a Rem for example, some barrels wouldn’t be suitable for this, especially if the swamp starts just after or near the recoil lug area Furthermore it won’t remove the fire cracking that could be quite substantial and pronounced further down the bore In short, setting back is a false economy with increasingly diminishing returns Once a barrel is done, it’s done
