Might be a complete coincidence, but within 2 hrs of receiving the spam email, I received a communication from my bank asking me to check that I was still registered for the free perks, which I didn't register for in the first place. Andy

I know it's spam, ie unsolicited. What I was asking was, is there any truth in it? Andy

I've received an email from a no win no fee outfit, suggesting the monthly charge for a current account, which includes stuff you didn't ask for, eg breakdown cover etc is not legal and the banks have to repay such charges. Anyone know anything about this? Andy

Calibre for wild goats and occasional deer?
Doggone replied to Houseplant's topic in Stalking & Game Shooting
My lad does a fair bit of goat shooting on hill ground, and although he has bigger and smaller calibres he always takes his 270 with a swaro z6i bt scope, and of course a good range finder with inclinometer. He has shot them out to 450 yds with this set up. -
I'm looking for a 410 top lever single barrel shot gun for my grandson. Condition not too important as long as it's safe. I've already got wabbitbosher on the case, but if he doesn't come up trumps, anyone got anything that might suit? Andy

If you're getting the 204 for the advertised high velocity, get a long barrelled one. The 20" barrels will only give you around 3800 fps not 4200 fps as advertised Andy

How to tighten cartridge section on a leather cartridge belt?
Doggone replied to Tomo-1's topic in Guns & Equipment
I wouldn't recommend it, but I once microwaved a wallet that my wife put in the washing machine. It was hilarious, it shrunk to about a quarter of its original size. Andy -
No .17 collet. Smallest is 20 which I had to buy extra. There is a .22 and 8 more bigger ones. It weighs 1.4 kg so probably quite expensive to post. Andy I assume by collet you mean neck insert?
-
Yes, I've got one, collect from PE7, let's say one third of new price. Andy

F.A.C licence. Separate ammo compartment
Doggone replied to Browning 425 clay hunter's topic in Guns & Equipment
Look on you tube at breaking into a digital safe. It put me off buying a cheapie Andy -
I think it is only illegal to release alien species back into the wild. Andy

My daughters two labs are called Trumpet and Pancake. I bought a trained lab two years ago called Pink, which has gradually morphed to Stinky. Andy

I went to halfords last night for a disco headlight bulb. Buy a pair he said, cheaper. Ok. £16.99. Called at tescos filling station on the way home and noticed a rack of light bulbs. Exactly the same bulb was £3.49. Last time I go to halfords for anything !! Ever !! Andy

Brilliant bit of kit. Takes about five seconds to trim and chamfer a case. I run my cases through every time I reload, even when only neck sizing. Never found the need to lubricate or adjust anything, just brush the swarf off the cutters and die very occasionally I use it for 204, 22/250, 243, 270 and 300 win mag. Of all my bits of kit, I would say it is the biggest single time saver I've got. Andy

Around here viral heamoragic disease is a bigger killer of rabbits than mixy. Seems to kill about 90 percent or more within a couple of weeks of seeing the first dead rabbit. They just sit still and gradually die over about 4 hours. Andy

Sounds like it could be a sticking or faulty thermostat Andy
-
Good shooting, what calibre and bullet weight is it? Andy
-
I've noticed one or two people saying it's illegal to release foxes back into the wild, I think it's only alien species that can't be released Andy
-
Which tube is in it? Do you have the certificate for the tube? Where are you? Cheers. Andy

I wouldn't use too much or you'll lose the grip between case and chamber, the very reason you clean any case lube off. Andy

I bought a part trained picking up lab bitch a couple of years ago. She was already called Pink. To save a lot of pee taking and to look a bit harder, I must admit that her name has gradually morphed to Stinky. (She is a little darling though and still called Pink at home) Andy
