As above in lovely condition,nice woodwork,bolt action and a snip at £115 - Face to face or buyer pays all RFD transfer costs.
Pics by email.
Thanks for looking.

Benelli M2 - you know it makes sense.
-
I shoot with a benelli M2 right handed action,all i had to do was change the stock shim,to straight hand,i shoot as well with it as i do with my proper L/H Tikka shotgun.
No probs with powder in the eye etc - i think thats due to the action,i have had a gun once that i could not use, a Franchi Hunter,but that was the old long recoil action - 2 visits to A&E with that one before i gave up on it.
-
So, having recieved no answer - did today happen?
-
Can do Warlock - but cant get there til 10.00am - have deeks etc,PM me your no and i'll give you a call if you like.
-
As above in 12g - what have you got???
-
I'll be there be good to put some faces to some names.
Silver Shogun for me.
-
Price drop - £150

Totally agree Bigthug87,i use mine a lot and in the spring/summer, more for those long range bunnies and that gets through the rounds - 630 rounds last year - thats £300 in factory ammo.
On an average foxing night i use 4 or 5 rounds - once a week - thats £130 a year in factory ammo
You can get PPU at £39 a hundred,but they shoot 2" at 100 yards and OK that won't make much difference,but 50g Hornady and CCI benchrest primer with 20gr of H4198 will put them in an 1" at 150 yards and cost less.
A Lee challenger kit is about £120 with the dies from Henry Kranks.
And theres something very satisfying about loading your own.

No i was quoting .222 .
Reloading is cheaper and i have been very pleased with the results so far
CCI Benchrest primers
AA2230 and Hogdon 4198 powders
50g Hornady bt and 50g Speer TNT
The above cost about 24p per round for components only,so i'm happy with .222 ammo at HMR prices.
-
Well down here Winchester Super X 50g soft points are £9.40 for 20,or PPU about £39.00 per hundred.
-
MTC Viper 10 X 44 illuminated ret,MTC's SCB Ret,brand new,never mounted on a gun or used,boxed with all acc.sunshade,mounts etc.

As above prefer synthetic M1/M2 cash waiting.

I started reloading .222 last year and i am very happy with the results.
The costs on mine are:
Powder Hogdon 4198 20gr = 4.8p
Primers CCI benchrest = 2.8p
Bullets 50gr V max = 15p
So 22p per load or 4.40 per box of 20,now with Winchester CXP at 9.65 a box of twenty thats less than half.
Of course that does not include the initial purchase of the press and dies etc.
-
Get a Wildcat Predator 8 - I've got one on my CZ .222,quieter than a T8 and strippable for cleaning.
-
As above - anyone have any for sale that unwanted?
?

Black hat i'll take the .410 as per my PM.
Thanks

Were going for a 10 o clock kick off.

We import parts and machines from both the States and Italy,pound has fallen 16% against the dollar and 11% against the euro - in the last three months.
We are reckoning on about 25-30% increases early next year,probably slipped in as 2 X 12.5% increases.
Don't know about you but i'm stocking up now.
-
More from Kent - excellent.
They do follow the same lines and i take quite a few on the flight lines at Wingham they follow a wood next to a stream,at Richborough the cross a junction of trees to within 50 yards,so yes i think they do.
As to the numbers that appear when you want them to - well thats pigeons for you.
-
Still on guys - many going 8 in my lot for definite,come on the more the merrier - faces to names on here etc,and of course the general p**s take.
Smallest shot size for Fox?

1oz and 9/16 of remington Drylok steel 3 1/2" magnum does the trick in no.1s,but i have shot many more with 6/7s and at recent shoot a big dog fox at 20 yards with Claybuster 28g 7 1/2,went over quick without moving.
