  1. I am sure the 000 grade wire wool would be less aggresive than scotch pads the green i think are very course.And its cheaper.
  2. And does it float Fishing,flat batteries looks good though. But i dont need one................................................. do i
  3. We could make it a little more even then. you put 3 of your little ones in a tub and i'll put 1 of my 220grn Noslers in one,,,, Dave me anal i just found it hard to believe that products designed to remove copper, were actually not doing what they were supposed to, thus leading all us shooter's down the garden path, and to add to this breaking the law a far as the 1968-1972 trades discription act. Dont get me wrong Dave i'm not having a pop, i would have been right behind you claiming my hard erned back off the companies selling these products. But i thought i would check first Dave get yourself to Catton this weekend its a good day out
  4. Dave i have just weighed a bullet,nosler bt55grn after being in K12 for 2 days and weighed it again and its lost 1.3 grn's so yes it does dissolve copper. 53.7grn's OK your not going to soak your barrel for 2 days but it proves a point. I will try petrol next week to see how much that has an effect on a simalar bullet, also Butchers and Bore Foam and let you know.
  5. wire wool, If you like clean cases (shiny ones) then i would recomend getting yourself a tumbler another reason not to use sand in these rests, not saying you have done but some folk do.

    Just a little info for you folk with dyslexia, you can blame your parents for it it is actually hereditary and more common in us males
  9. Dont get as confused as me please. I have just got round to realise its Sunday not Saturday. I was just having a senior moment
  10. You only need to change the rings dont you thats assuming you keep the opti-lock bases
  11. Bloomin ell You awake at that time, at this rate you could stop up all night on guard. Its ok putting cams out put it would have to be cheap ones the toe wrags will end up nickin them. Thats of course if they can see them.
  12. The new S5 are allot lighter as said, i have the old heavy weight, very good but if i had the choice to swap i would, but its not on a rifle i walk around with. I have a Sonic on another (very light) also a JetZ compact for a 30.06 which again is very good.
  13. There's no question about the abilty to be able to shoot any rifle at whatever quary you have in mind, they shoot well with or without. But the ability to hold a normal conversation with a shooter that is profoundly deaf from damaged hearing caused by shooting rifles without sound moderators is extremly frustrating for both party's. Yes you can wear hearing protection whilst shooting if you choose, the same as folks choose to use moderators. But what you will not have the choice of is regaining your hearing loss, but that may be your choice, once its gone its gone for good. I have shot with an old timer that was happy to shoot without for as long as i am old, he shot both sporting and target at quite a high level and all i hear him say during a conversation is "you'll have to speak up" He has just recently moved up into the 21st century and has a mod for one,only one of his rifles. And that is the only rifle he will be asked to take whilst out lamping for Fox's due to the ecessive noise of an un-moderated rifle.

  15. Not sure, but called it pest control and it should be more acceptable.
  16. I was going on Sat as well, just to suss the ranges out, but allas i fluffed up on the days as Fruitloop pointed out. I will just go on the Sunday instead, wont be there till later i cant get out of work early.
  17. 1912-1924 or after 1924 if it has "made in the usa" printed on the box. Thats the Winchester repeater. others not sure. check out google it just took me 3 minutes so you should find out a allot more At work and have toooo many restrictions on some sites.
  18. I would get in to the Dr asap and see them. As folk have said, if , and hopefully not you go in to an anaphylaxis shock then ringing for a Dr or 999 may not be possible.
  19. Pinky its a great shame that traders like yourself refrain from going due to the fear of having stock stolen. The cost of organising these events is ever increasing, this is IMO not due to expense but down to greed from the organisers . Countryman Fairs should take more controll of this issue and look after its long term interests. And avoid these type's of shows ending up like the Royal.
  20. Got rid of mine on my hmr because it started to show signs of burning up, swapped it for an ase utra. They are more expensive but its been on the hmr now for nearly 9 years.
  21. Simon 55gr nosler bt in my sako bear in mind its had a custom barrel measures 2.097 & 50 nosler are 2.0935. The tikka measure 2.020. Using 60gr vmax allot shorter than the sako. 55noslers in the tikka are 2.007 showing a significant difference. At the mo the Sako is out performing the tikka chucking out a nice 0.89 group at 310yds on Sat evening, only 3 shots mind. So load wise they pretty good. These are measured from the ogive using a hornady OAL gauge
  22. Northumberland/Durham that what is says, Fister Not far from your end is it
  23. Your FLO sounds like he's a YTS you dont need a DSC. to shoot Deer, all though what you do after you shoot it,assuming you shoot it when you cant get to the abatoir, say for instance a Sunday. Then you could possibly be wasting a carcuss due to your inexperience in preperation. Or just put in for a 30.06 and be done with it.
  24. And will still have a warranty. I am just wating for one I bought from a chap off here to be returned from Leopold, I sent it to them for a clean and they told me a service, so I assume it should come back in tip top condition
