    7x64 Brenneke - Opinions

    Brenneke used the 8x64S as a prent case for the 7mm , when he designed it in 1917 . The trouble with it was the way the Great War turned and the lack of years before German ammo once again was available . It would been excellent in the India areas with the heavy bullets it’s made for and the...

    .404 Jeffrey - New Load Performance

    I wish a 300 hp copper if NF would make a .404 in that would be a truly great bullet . When I had a .404 , I had some of them ( Norwegian made copper ones ) they made the ballistic of .404 like a 180 .30-06 and much better than it was originally when it came .

    Bullets that well advertised but were not that great

    I think it was @Hunter-Habib or Professor Mawla that spoke about the altering of the Silvertip without notice . Going from a strong nickel steel cap and thick jacket to an aluminum tip and soft jacket with other materials mixed in it .

    Bullets that well advertised but were not that great

    .35 cal Oryx FL , too soft and brittle . Incidentally the original FL ammonia they loaded for it back when it came was some nickel jacketed Alaska original made for .358 Win, and others . All were the same , brittle , soft , lot of superficial wounds and ruined meats .

    Bringing 2 guns on a dangerous game hunt?

    .404 and 9,3 Are two good friends to bring along ( as Peter Flack said on his SA hunt dvd , he would always bring two dg rifles when on dg , and 1 pg with 1 dg when on pg ) as his examples were then .

    Proper Gin and Tonic

    I can’t stand pure gin , prefer the sloe or pink ( must been from snacking on juniper berries as a kid I think ) But look up Harahorn gin or Hellstrøm , both Norwegian and quite good the regular versions of them . Not so juniper thick , lighter and citrusy ones .

    EU ammo lead ban updates

    And historic firearms also excempt It will mean one can shoot on range for practice and the shoot test with lead ammo but outside with lead free . Perhaps the argument of better iq in kids as they said will come with lead free air is better voting reforms and so on .

    A thorough conversation with Swarovski - Conclusion: Rookhawk knows nothing and is wrong about everything

    A 2,5-10x or 3-12x either 50 or 56 is much favored as a allround scope by many due to the dusk dawn one . With the newer types like 3-15x56 of a compact version it’s also quite useful . But not to speak about Swaro for a sec here , but there is a 2-10x42 illuminated one made by the famous spy...

    A thorough conversation with Swarovski - Conclusion: Rookhawk knows nothing and is wrong about everything

    It’s not that tall mounted as regular 1 inch scopes and the bell get a bit forward on barrel . Excellent swap scope with a 2-7 variable . But I find much of scope use for me to be set on 6 or 8 power anyway on a x56 variable . So a fixed one that is there all the time make it worthy for many...
