@Papa72 was able to do the morphing. Sent print file to Tim at Matrix Gunsmithing as he does the real work:) OAL is 3.685 per Hornady manual. @Franco Have ability to weight the 3D printed but have not exercised that yet (kinda a sitting on the desk thing) below is the weight of the 3D...

@Papa72 should be able to morph the program for rimmed (currently only has belt and rimless). What bullet will u be using? Steve

25"

wrote CAD program to 3D print cartridges, either to Saami or CIP specifications and some used for feed work. Not sure how much of demand would be for such a thing. Did not consider rimmed. Steve

@Jack Stevens, could be. I ran the numbers for 10lb rifle (not the same powder) with the smallest and largest charge: charge of 120gn at 90% load density and 2252fps is 91ft-lbs charge of 159gn at 106% load density and 2191fps is 106ft-lbs

@Rocco490 Checking with my nephew, he is a Glock aficionado Steve

Wow, 8 minutes Guess that is why ur @ActionBob :) Otherwise I would’ve jumped.

I set for a lighter load, accuracy and load density. Peep sight 50yd group using 400gn DGS and 74.3gn h4350 gives 2089fps in 23.6" barrel.

what i use is a laser, such as Wheeler, place target at know distance, say 10-20yds, max magnification and measure where each subtends lands the laser, then can estimate the reticle subtend spacing, at least get you close. Steve

for the reprint, £40-60 is a good price. 1893 First Editions, £800-1100. Steve

@RR 314 Guilty as charged:) Modern double square bridge mauser with thumb cut, flag safety, drop floorplate and military trigger, setup for an old school 416 Rigby.

@CBeck Thanks for getting me started:) Neumann wrote Elephant Hunting in East Equatorial Africa about his hunting in 1898 He made his way to Lake Rudolph in search of more elephants and was terribly gored by a cow elephant and spent about 3 months laid up there. His description is something...

416 Rigby or the Remington. The Rigby has mucho anecdotal reports, over decades, on its performance on elephant and buffalo. Unfortunately does need a large action such as the CZ from @krish

some examples of laser engraving that Tim at Matrix Gunsmithing is doing for his customers. here is my one and only rifle engraving, a tribute to Arthur Neumann.

My 495 Asquare has 2 six inch long tungsten rods In the buttstock for balance and weight. It feels “solid” when I shoulder compare to my other wood stocked rifles.
