I have just purchased 2 Pelican Vault V770 rifle cases for an up & cumming hunting trip , great products, i spray painted on my details with a stencil, i masked off a area & it cleaned with acetone & a scotch brite pad & sprayed the area with a product that allows paint to adhere to plastic ...

In my experience if you want a M98 Mauser action for a 375 H&H find a Zastava in 375 , no mods req , good product a little rough but smooth up easily, the 375 versions are marked 375 on the underside with an engraver , all modern steel, good triggers no thumb cut out, much cheaper than...

I love dogs, my best friend is a silly dog he is faithful & loyal, more so than some humans.

Been loading 270 Win for a deer hunt in July with my 2 Sons, been range testing & have decided on 130 grain Hornady CX Norma brass & 57g of RL19 groups about .8 moa 3 shots. i will take my Weatherby mk5 in 280 REM also, IT shoots 160 gr Speer GRAND SLAMS & ADI AR2209 in to about 1 moa so will...

No never a factory load , i do not understand why , maybe Hornady should and name it the 416 PRC !

The rifle is not a Weatherby it looks like a Parker Hale to me.

I would like to add the 416 Taylor a great well balanced cartridge & not too much recoil & enough power, & fits in a std magnum action with easily made brass from 338 or 458 WIN MAG .

350 Remington Mag.

Think about the 6.5s ie 6.5 CM, 6.5x55 OR A 260 REM.or a 6.5 PRC, light recoil& enough power

Is red enough!

Bill Marden jnr passed away some time ago the last of the Marden family involved in the Simplex reloading products. i believe the tooling ect has been purchased by Cast bullet engineering, what the product line is now is yet to be disclosed. The end of an era of a wonderful Australian...

I love those Ruger 77s

Brass is hard to get , Redding make a form & trim die, its easily made out of 7 MM Rem mag brass, form trim, & anneal & you are ready to go. 200 & 220 grain bullets work well , Speer & Hornady is what i use. A short magnum from the early 1960s.

Think about a 6.5x55 , 7mm/08 0r 7x57 light recoil & enough power.

Do not use a steel punch on the bottom metal, use a brass , copper , aluminum or even a hard plastic one when you remove it scrape away some of the bedding epoxy to give it a little clearance, when fitted up there should be about 2mm clearance between the bottom metal & the action, if you have...
