@Deepfork That Whelen load is really humping along Please pm me the details. Bob

@Axle2010 Mate he who snoozes loses. Next time but then, you can always in sell them at the same price if'n you don't like them. Bob

@Corey0372 Love the high tech bedding job. Hey it works and keeps the old girl going. Bob

@mauserhunter That ppu brass won't be much good if'n y'all shot it up. Better go with the lapua. HA HA HA HA HA HA Bob

Don't know what all the fuss is about In Australia we can't get or use 3.5" shot shells or shotguns. Our govt won't trust us with anything that powerfull. Three inch in a 12 bore is as big as we can go. A 3" sellior and bellot magnum slugs in an a light Mossberg bolt gun is as much fun as I...

@mauserhunter It's good to see the scope will hit a 6" gong every time but how does the rifle shoot Ha Ha Ha Bob

@Din Hinton As much as I like the automag I prefer the 50cal desert eagle but if'n I had my choice I would settle for a Wilson combat 45acp. Bob

@Doug Hamilton Auto correct pisses me off no end Bob

@Doug Hamilton If'n that's the case do I hunt lion or lew- ons. This is based on the fact the lions are called Leo the lion Just wondering. Bob

Sarg Looks like a P14 BUT there rear ears are missing and it's drilled and tapped for scope mounting. To me it looks like BSA may have got hold of it and modified it to a sporting rifle then had it proofed and stamped with their logo Holland and Holland did the same with P14s & M17s when the...

@Sourdough Yeah but can he shoot Lucky it's not an Alex Baldwin gun or he would probably blows his dang foot off re holstering it Bob

@Bullthrower338 Cody is it true you are sending that to me. Just asking a friend told me. Only ever seen one in Australia. That would make two Bob

@Tubby’s Canteen If'n it ain't registered it never existed. Bob

@Red Leg When I first started reading this I thought Red Leg in a dress, I would pay to see that and wondered if'n y'all kept it in your bra or garter. Fortunately I read on. Nicely engraved James Bond gun he loves the little PPK . My gunsmith has a fully engraved gold plated one that his...

@R eight In Australia a lot of those little martini cadets were converted to 22 Hornet, 22K Hornet, 218 Bee and we even invented the 222 rimmed for use in the Martini. Bob

@Sarg I never knew BSA made P14s as the original P13 was sent to America to be made but the war intervened and at became the the P14 made by Remington, Winchester and Eddystone. After they cancelled the contract it then became the M17 to supplement the US Springfield. After the war Remington...

@Hunter-Habib I think someone in management must have been either off their medication or taking something funny at the time that severely affected their judgement. As much as I hate the 243 hearing one go off with that muzzle brake made me hate the already noisy sob even more. When the muzzle...

@wolfhunter I prefer shooting for fun as the only one I have to beat is me. It can be hard beating yourself at times. No smart arse comments from others with dirty perverted minds. I know what y'all are thinking Bob

@Tbitty Leave out the out the ought six and put in the 280 and you pretty well have it. Yes I would prefer the term Whelen as god hisef used it. Never uses that blasphemous term 35-06 unless you are referring to the AI, as the 35-06 AI isn't worth the effort. Bob

@Ridge Runner Actually I stuffed up. Should be Mosin Nagant Bob

@Hunter-Habib BSA certainly made some very fine firearms but I personally think someone lost the plot when they put integral muzzle brakes on some rifles. This to me turned a beautiful rifle into a noisy ugly pice of rubbish. In Australia a lot of people removed them. BSA also made the No1...

@Ridge Runner Try Masin Nagant. Bob

@mdwest And here's silly me thunking it was them there Virginians. Some of them do speak funny to us orstralyans. Bob

@NDWoods That sounds more like my ex wife. That's why she became my ex. While I was away with the army she thought fore play was her and three others Bob

@CZDiesel Looks nothing like a 22K Hornet, fast 25 and a Whelen to me. Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Bob

@wolfhunter Not that good old son Just off the bench and field positions like sitting and standing supported. No comps just for fun and to improve my skills. Bob

@Shootist43 Art And what's wrong with your Whelen mate. It worked last time at any distance so it will work again. Why play around with the others when you have a perfectly good Whelen. Just get around to loading up some 250s for yourself with the load data I gave you . Load some of those nice...

@cash_tx Dial your 25-96 in with a nice 100gn TTSX and 54gn of H4350 for 3,400fps. The beauty of the savage is you can do the barrel swap yourself using a factory round as a headspace gauge. Bob

@Rule 303 Only you would do that mate Bob

@Grumpy gumpy How bout a 505 Gibbs necked down to 375 or 35. Bob

@wysongdog True. But to save stuffing around lengthening actions and changing mag boxes just rebarrel an Enfield to 375 Ruger. Easier, cheaper and the same punch in a shorter action. Leave the guppy belly in it so you can stuff 5 rounds in the mag. Bob

@cash_tx Now whip that horrible 270 barrel off and send it to JES for a rebore to 35 Whelen and get a 25-06 barrel to go with it and your set fer anything. Bob

@Mtn_Infantry After many years if trial and error, well a few errors like 270 I have come to the conclusion that my 25 and Whelen will do for everything I care to hunt Bob

@radname I'm hearing you Bob

@radname You can say anything you want mate I have Teflon shoulders, the shit just slides off. Now if'n y'all had said a 243 you would have been in for a real talking to. Bob

@Rule 303 Sorry to say but your gunsmith is pissing in your pocket and telling you it's raining. The P14 bolt face is set for the rimmed 303 British which has an identical size to magnum cases from 257 Weatherby to 458wm.. It may need to be opened up a bit for the big magnums tho. The bolt face...

@radname And what will the little 300WM do that the mighty Whelen won't do better may I ask. Bob

@Ontario Hunter The trigger guard is not attached to the mag box. On the M17 with the straighter floor plate the mag capacity has been reduced to 5. Yes you did read correctly. The original M17 with the guppy belly unbeknownst to most people has a mag capacity of 6 so straightened it just...

@Rule 303 M17 in 35 Whelen AI without guppy belly and action lightened to lighter than the REM mod30. P14 in my 25 with guppy belly and unaltered action Both cock on closing and Timney triggers set at 2#. I do like my Enfields. Bob

@wysongdog Just get a Ruger African in 375 Ruger. Bob

@Rule 303 All you need is the Whelen. I bought my 94 about the same time for the princely sum of $80, then got rid of that after punching my finger betwixt the lever and trigger and got a 788 in 22-250 and a 303-25. That's when my love affair with 25s started Bob

@Ontario Hunter No BSA even put a muzzle brake on their horrible little 243. The first thing owners did was have a gunsmith remove it. It was a noisy little bitch Bob

@Rule 303 According to Geoff at Woodleigh the hydros can be loaded to the same velocity as the protected point without issue as they ride in driving bands and DONT increase pressure. Bob

@CBH Australia I Have bot push feed and CRF. Personally I can't tell the difference betwixt with when used correctly. My push feed Savage will feed at any angle even upside down. To me it's all about being familiar with your rifle and it's use so you don't short stroke it and cause a jam. Both...

@F. Vaccaro Now days with all the load development done for all my centerfires I now find myself taking my BRUNO No2 in 22lr to the range more often and shooting it out to 200 yards. A bucket full of fun for not much cost and helps improve shooting skills as a bonus Bob

@VertigoBE Is he any relation to Steven Spielberg. Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Bob

@ZG47 Mate when someone tries to tell me the 243 is useful for more than tomato stakes or a paper weight I tend to do one of two things. Tune out Or Get a bit cranky and give them a not so polite talking to. Bob

@Rick HOlbert When I get over there mate I'm just going to try and bring you over the ultimate 358win bullet in the nice 225gn rnsp Woodleigh. Bob

@R&M FIREARMS That's a great but. It's good to see the superior cartridge (the Whelen) is cheaper than the 338. Now maybe @CoElkHunter will get rid of his 338 because Whelen ammo is cheaper than his little fun. Bob

@ActionBob If you had friendly neighbours or family get them to get you some and collect it from them. Where there's a will there's a way. Bob
