There's some would say load the extra wad as a sandwich between equal two charges of half the total weight of the shot. To get a close range spreader load. Or if you can do so trim the cases down to a true 65mm length and you shouldn't maybe need that extra 3mm wad at all?

President Reagan in 1987 sent Edward Perkins as US Ambassador to P W Botha's South Africa. The Americans also can be quite blunt in the message a particular appointment is intended to convey.

Washington DC and now less so Paris have always been pretty much political gifts of the the British PM (and vice versa their ambassadors to London the gift of US and French Presidents and other nations' Heads of State). I knew the daughter of the Zambian High Commissioner in the late 1980s and when Kenneth Kaunda lost the 1991 Election there he was gone and replaced by someone of the Frederick Chiluba's nomination with a matter of weeks. Don't forget that Lord Halifax was shuffled off to the USA in WWII and we had Joseph Kennedy gifted us for a while by the USA. Both Halifax and Kennedy were not career diplomats but career politicians. Ormsby-Gore in the 1960s was a former Tory MP and Foreign Secretary and again was a political appointment - this was the time of the Cuba Crisis and negotiations about the UK getting Polaris. Peter Jay in the 1970s was sent to Washington by his father-on-law Jim Callaghan! So it is nothing new either from us to them or from them to us. These three postings DC, Paris, London have always pretty much been political. Look at any list former British Ambassadors to the US and the "politicos" in the 20th Century out number the career diplomats. If war is, as someone once said, too important to be left to the Generals so too are foreign relations with the President of the USA too important to be left to the career diplomats. Mandelson isn't being sent there to oversee the issue of replacement travel documents to British tourists who have mislaid their passports he is there because what he says and thinks is pretty much and going to be an echo is what Starmer says and thinks

My post wasn't an argument about Brexit until a third party came along and tried to make it so. I hope that you might wish to restore my post as it dealt with the post-Brexit realities of relocating to Spain or Germany and also the situation vis a vis Ireland.

This. +1. The same with Webley 700 vs AYA No4 guns. IMHO the No4 is anyway the better gun save the cosmetics of cyanide case colouring and its engraving. But chopper lump barrels and a replaceable and available cross pin off the shelf (as with other parts) from ASI.

I think that could make sense as shorter barrels will be lighter and, as you are going to shorten the stock that also means it will still balance and not be muzzle heavy. The mainland is well supplied with 21 gram and 24 gram 12 bore clay loads so in effect you've a 20 bore load in a 12 bore gun that's cost you merely the price of shortening the stock and fitting a pad. The only caveat would be to wear good hearing protection. But a benefit is that you also have no danger of mixing 20 and 12 bore cartridges in the same pocket or cartridge satchel.

Can you not get them from "the source" here in London as it were outwith GMK? https://berettagallery.com/london

As shown this is set up to be used as a "single station" press for which re-priming is done off the press and for loading in batch where the head containing the dies is rotated into position so a batch of cases done on one die at that one position. Therefore it does not have with it its ratchet or associated column or the priming arms. I believe that some of these spares, if in stock, can be obtained from Lee's UK agencies.£55.00 cash on collection from near LE9 2AL or can be posted by Royal Mail Parcelforce 48 cost of which is £10.50. https://leeprecision.com/files/instruct/TP2131_redbase.pdf

Bought and taken by D*********4 and sent on its way.

Two, both male, trapped and shot this lunchtime. The trap was barely reset than the second one was caught in it. 3106

PM received from D*********4 and replied to. Awaiting his reply to it.

Steel on steel contact if the shot were nit fully enclosed would be the result. Steel shot is actually iron but, nevertheless, allowing the shot and barrel to be "naked" on each other isn't good. Even in army and navy guns the steel cased projectiles (which won't be moving about as would lose shotgun sho)t mostly have copper driving bands which are what engage with the rifling in the barrel.
