fiver sent, hope she rekindles her faith

DONT buy anything listed as located in China, India etc etc........ also if you are daft enough to buy any high end optics or pretty much anything high value you kinda deserve all ya get.... all that looks too good to be true usually is

fantastic pic .............. wish I was even a tenth as skilled with my camera!

buy a stapler... trust me it's even more annoying when you are trying to peel them off and they come off in strips

46:55:00 .................. Hmmmmmm

Frenchieboy don't get too bogged down with paperwork and bench data, in the field there is not a big enough difference between .222 and .223 to worry about... personally I use a .223 with a 26 inch barrel and a 1:12 twist, the weight and length of it is a damn nuisance (with mod attached) but I can target shoot it out to 600yds (if it's not too windy) and it is more than capable at despatching foxes and bunnies, if you want to eat the bunny afterwards just choose yer shots and headshoot those ones. I use 55grain heads for everything now, anything heavier tends to pepperpot I figure it's the twist rate. .223 is easier to lay hands on and has a variety of choice compared to .222, I used .222 for years and moved to .223 because of this . I only wish that I'd got a shorter barrel though, other than that I 'm very happy with my choice. Don't forget the less common the calibre = the less common the ammo, just go to your local dealer and ask what choice of ammo he has in given calibres..... might help influence your choice

Does that mean does Santa hold an FAC?, (Rudolph might be a bit nervy, if Santas got a section 5) or does that mean has Santa got an FAC in his sack for you this year? Either way, Merry Xmas to you and to all PW'ers

ABC of reloading is money well spent if you're just starting. Speers manual is not all that much good in my opinion (specific to speers bullets), my Bible is the Lyman, it's a bit more general.... but once you've got yourself sorted you'll only occasionally look at the same one or two pages. I've got about a foot and a half of books on reloading on my shelf,..... read them all when I started ..... haven't looked at them since. One thing that puzzles me is that if you look up the same callibre and bullet weight in all the books, they all quote different values

China has a habit of walking them out of the dock, round to the back of the courthouse and shooting them on the spot... not nice.....not pretty ..... but cheap and efficient........... can't say that I like it, but I feel that as deterrents go, that one covers it for me.

incredible pics mate....... gets me where you find so much light ..... all I've had is rain lately

Palladium gets my vote,.. hardwearing, ....stays the same colour forever.... pricewise not much different to gold

you would think that yer group size would open up....... but I've never noticed any difference

brings ya back to the old adage "If a jobs worth doing properly...do it yourself" ,...... for my own entertainment I used to mark things and torque spark plugs and bolts up to specific values (not the one in the book) whenever I stuck a new bike into the dealer for it's free 500 mile service, without fail it always came back untouched, lots of different bikes, lots of different dealers, same rip off .... all it did was give me that valuable stamp in the book for the warranty..... then I did the service myself

I would consider it very carefully, even if gaining permission from the right place..... should an accident be caused by your actions ... ie a rabbit slipping the net and and bolting across the road ... or even merely by you being cited as a distraction .... wouldn't like to be in your shoes I got turfed off the top of a motorway embankment by the police some years ago... all I was doing was covering the holes just the other side of the fence at the top of a large cutting... police got very humpy and rolled out a long list of of half a**** charges from trespass to liability to cause an accident etc etc ... may have been bull , but wasn't worth me arguing the toss with an an angry red faced copper

:lol:

Fantastic pic, I love the way people dressed better to go rummaging around in bramble bushes then than people dress to go to the pub on a Friday night now....... take pics .......... rather like these fine gentlemen, a hundred years from now no one will have a clue who you were (except of course for Seamus's grandfather) but the pics will show a way of life and the people that led it

Ya know you open yer mouth and put both feet straight in, this is another one I haven't tried ..... but that's on the list too now.... Having said that the worst rum I EVER had was in Venezuela.... but if you buy drink with dodgy looking labels from a back street shop out there ..., you deserve all you get

Not tried the El Dorado... but it's on my list now...... I have rated Mount Gay Extra Old.. as the finest rum on the planet for many years. If ya wanna go spiced Captain Morgans takes some beating.... and you can buy it anywhere. Mount Gay eclipse is a very fine rum but the Extra Old is in a different league. No one could claim to have tried every rum .... but as a long time rum drinker I've given it a good go.....I've been to most of the islands in the Caribbean (not all) and I've been all over the world drinking local rums as I go but I still keep coming back to the Extra Old

I had a similar problem with one of my dies some time ago, full bodyweight to size em, turned out that it wasn't lubed properly, when you lube the cases wipe the tiniest amount of lube into the neck of your case.... don't actually try to get lube in there, just scrape the case over the wet finger of your glove... barely enough to see it ..... lubes the sizer...... unfortunately ya gotta clean inside the neck of yer cases afterwards ......... oh and by the way the ones you've stretched by heaving on em...... they're scrap

Looking at the lot we've got in charge, I would suggest it would only be for tax evasion...... and maybe speeding

Oh no not again..... I got smashed off my **** last time , .......... tonight it's a bottle of Ruinart that I've been saving, no occasion just fancy it...... cheers.... hic

Unsporting ............... but I guess if an air rifle is all ya got and you're looking for dinner..............

Fantastic

Hang em...... cut em down, beat them with sticks, then hang em again....... until they're very sorry

I've done the Addlestones cloudy cider, next I'm going to polish off the vodka with a little tonic, then crack open the Mount Gay (the finest rum on earth) with some coke.... If anyone would like to ask me some stupid questions in about an hours time, I should be banned from here by nine
