  1. Biggest would be anything with 220 Russian as the parent case. So PPC etc, as for deer legal, well 6.5 Grendel makes the grade, and if an off the shelf option is more your style then 7.62x39, but you will have to hand load for it, deer legal with the right powder and bullet, but only with top end loads. Neil.
  2. If 4000 rounds kills an hmr then there would be many of them scrapped. My Annie had over 12k round down it and was getting better results than when new. If it worn at crown and chamber it is all down to cleaning rod damage. Neil.
  3. 20 bore Beretta 686 for me, does all I need, and as far as live stuff goes, so far nothing has complained I'm not using a 12 If my pockets were a lot deeper, I'd go back to a 12, but it would need to be a nice light SxS of decent quality. Neil.
  4. £37.50 pay-pal and postage included ? Neil.
  5. Any sensible offers before I consign it to the big box with all the other unused stuff ? Neil.
  6. All pm's answered, and advert edited with more details. Neil.
  7. Complete and brand new, bought for a project that fell by the wayside. This is designed for the loading of brass cases, it will do plastic but the priming parts are for rifle size primers. I was going to use .303 british brass, and have 50 once fired and clean cases I can include for £5 Cost me £55 shipped with import duty. Want £35 collected, payment by bank transfer. Postage, £7 RMSD insured, or £4 second class no insurance at you risk. Pay-Pal is available but will be +4% Please PM if interested! Neil.
  8. Sorry, yet agin PW sent no notification of a post Now sold pending funds. But if it falls through you have second dibs, postage is £16 with city link. Neil.
  9. Remote Control Spotlight by Optronics. This is suction mounted remote control lamp, full remote on/off, up/down, left/right. The lamp also has an LED work lamp built in, also with remote control, a red filter is included for the search lamp. Looking for £50 posted, by bank transfer, if pay-pal you need to cover the fees. If interested please PM me, for some reason I can't get the forum to send notifications of a post. Neil.

  16. Ok, a year ago I decided after not trout fishing for nearly 15 years I had to try it again. I borrowed some gear to have a try, gear was far to light, 4 weight rods and big waters don't mix, but still had a great time. Enthusiasm running on high I waited till spring and off to the tackle shops I went, bought a few bits and ordered more on line. Then 2 lots of surgery to both elbows put a tempory stop to things, a month and a bit later I tried a practise cast with my new rod and a borrowed reel and line showed very quickly I would not be fishing yet So now 6 months post surgery I went out on the local res, Hanningfield with a mate, used his gear as I had not finished setting mine up. So the bad news is it isn't going to happen again for me, just isn't worth the pain or long term damage. So all I bought is for sale, I don't want to mess about with splitting it all up and e-baying it, so here it is. Rod is a Wychwood Extremis 10' 7 weight, 3 piece and in a hard tube, has a Fuji reel seat not the original as it would not fit the reels I bought. Daiwa Lochmor Reels are 7/8 weight, 2 of them, both have new backing and Cortland lines, one sinking and one floating, still have 1 box and all the paperwork and left/right wind tools. More new lines, not opened, Cortland, a faster sinking weight forward 7, a Snowbee XS w forward floating 5 weight, Scientific Anglers medium sink 5 weight. Five spools of new fly line backing, a spool of hook length material, a selection of tapered leaders, packets of end loops standard and floating. 6 spool bands (2 on the reels) a new fly box with assorted new flies, a bag as bought containing a mix of flies lures, around 50 of them, and couple of used extending scissor holder things. Just totalling up the major bits it comes to well over £250 + all the minor bits which is probably another £100. I don't want to mess about, I'm not happy to have to sell it all, but it's not going to do me any good, and having it sitting here is winding me up. £150 posted and it's yours ​Neil.
  17. I've had mine for about 5 months now and loving it. Around town and short trips it is averaging about 33mpg, that includes lamping once a week. Longer runs, and there have been a few see's an easy 40mpg with a high of 43mpg. Neil.
  18. Trouble is it only works for as long as your fingers stay attached. Neil.
  19. Congratulations Neil, just relax and enjoy it Neil.
  20. Safari on an I-Mac, same double tap needed, first noticed yesterday morning. Neil.
  21. Round up pro or gold will sort it out. But you need to find somewhere that sells to the trade, your local gardening shop won't have it. Depending on what we need to kill we have mixed it at up to 4 x the recommended strength, at that strength it will kill tress pdq. At recommended strength it works well on general weeds and scrub including gorse, also very good on reeds and lilly pads. Neil.
  22. Jimny, around town and rabbit shooting on cut hay fields I'm getting 32mpg or about 250 miles to a tank. Yesterday 200 miles on motorway at a steady 55mph used just on half a tank, quite impressed with that. Neil.
