    Is there an "All around powder?"

    Don’t know exactly for bob, but -4 (24*F) to 51.5 (125*F) where I live, too dry for snow and rain seems to be a distant memory Gumpy

    Gun safe recommendation

    I built my own main safe to suit my longer rifles, weighs over 200 kg(440lb) and I very much doubt that a non-dedicated person would be able to get into it. It holds fifteen comfortably but I should have made it bigger, currently has twenty five squeezed in. It may be cheaper to find someone who...

    Shoot with one eye open, and one closed, or both open?

    Perhaps an addendum to this thread on what calibre for tofu and wether you shut one or both eyes when shooting it Gumpy

    Set Triggers

    With the CZ 550’s and big bores, if the set trigger is a single set, it can be adjusted out to work as a standard trigger that’s not that heavy Gumpy

    Bedding the CZ 550 Safari Magnum in its own stock!

    416 Strausse, 416-03, or 416-303BR

    What was the cartridge von Guff built on a mosin or a smle (I could have remembered that wrong) I have vague memories of a 7.62x54 or 303 opened up to 416, I’ll have the article somewhere in my piles of "useful "documents…..( wife calls it my fire hazard) Gumpy

    Shoot with one eye open, and one closed, or both open?

    Shoot with one eye open, and one closed, or both open?

    I was ambidextrous when younger, forced to be right handed at school, but left eye dominate , shot rifles and shogun right hand and hand gun left handed. I would have both eyes open till I needed to shoot and then close the eye not needed so I could focus better, when I was blinded in my left...

    Cracked stock

    That bedding job looks like badly applied devcon. There should be no voids in it. Gumpy

    Shoot with one eye open, and one closed, or both open?
