I know it wouldn't be identical to shooting a live animal it was more out of interest and I wanna play with something different Also was wondering where I would get the gelatin in big quantities from, I had a look on the bay but I haven't had time for a real look yet.

There is videos on youtube on how to make it, looks simple enough, just wondered if it was worth it?

I was just wondering if anyone on here has tried or used ballistic gel to see how their bullets perform? I fancy making some and trying my home loads out and seeing how they perform at different ranges etc.

Well done, looks like you had a great time.

SOLD.

"can I keep that up..................no" nice video and good to see you on the trigger FB. ATB Aister.

I have 57 140gr a-max bullets which I have been trying in my 6.5x55 but had no luck at all. Sportsman has them priced at £38 per hundred plus postage, anyone wanting to try them without buying a whole box can have them for £15 posted. Paypal preferred.

That's a smart looking smoke pole

Excellent, its a great feeling dropping your first, well done :-)

I had a friend who had an SX3 the same as mine and with half choke and 3" BB's it threw a beautiful pattern at 50 yards but my SX3 with half choke and the same shells was terrible. You really need to try your own gun/shell combo so you know what it is doing.

My one is among those to be recalled but I fitted a timney trigger kit to my reminton 700 BDL soon after I got it so I cant see that mine has to go back. Somebody correct me if I am wrong

I knew underdogs ears would ***** up at the mention of such a calibre haha

I have this lamp which I use mostly on my .22 but also occasionally on my .223. A bit over your budget but one I would recommend http://www.uttings.co.uk/p109170-tracer-tri-star-pro-gunlight-light-only-gl2950/?gclid=CKS9s7Wx1L0CFdShtAod1G0Asw#.U0XApvldX3M

If you are asking me, they are warne mounts.

I got mine from Australia from these guys. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CNC-Machined-Tikka-T3-Bolt-Shroud-and-Knob-Kit-Black-Anodized-/281306592438?pt=AU_Hunting&hash=item417f2df4b6

I have just fitted an over sized bolt handle and alu shroud to my tikka and love it. I was a bit hesitant at first but really like the feel of it. The last time I was down on the mainland stalking it was chucking it down and when I went to reload quickly after the shot I found the tikka bolt handle quite slippy but hopefully that wont be too much of a problem now.

Well done, the buck looks good. Any info on that very smart looking rifle?

Excellent, I love the smile on the lads face, it says it all. Well done the pair of you

Excellent, well done

Glad to hear you are still shooting a bit, keep at it and all the best

I am having my 30-06 screw and looking at moderators and the roedale ultralight has caught my eye because of its size and weight. I have ase utras on my 223 and swede but was looking for something lighter for the 06. Anyone using a roedale?

Yes it could be that, its worth trying them again. I know that I always had thumb nail sized groups at 60 yards then when the box design changed the last time my groups opened up to over 2 inch.

Thanks for that Mike.

I like my ase utra as it is not too big and bulky.

Smart looking guns Mike, can you give me any info on the ammo you used in the 223?
