  1. Clock says 200k, still sounds nice I used to go from Bucks to Shropshire every few weeks no problems. It is available to test if you wish. turbo on engine is not original and is also good. Service history unknown before me as it was with a farmer, I flushed engine and filled with fully syth oil and slick additive to reduce friction. I am traveling this weekend - looking at possible replacement to my Disco so best to call my mobile 07979930704 or contact my mate Ross 07711712527 pop along try it our run to hot whatever you need to do no worries. Steve
  2. Following a sad encounter with an embankment in the snow my 2000 V plate Land Rover Discovery 2 was put on its side. The insurance company have allowed me to break it, they then want the destruction notice. The good bits - really good engine with new injection wiring harness. Clutch and dual mass flywheel have done 8k only - gearbox and drive train are all good. Loads of bits available and vehicle is still running / driving until next weekend when dismantling will begin so you can come and see for yourself. Disco is dark blue. Please contact Ross (my mate ) to arrange and talk money. Ross - 07711712527
  3. i agree with previous comments re Hornady 17gr no problems used em for years
  4. I am having problems with my night vision. I have a B grade Archer with a Firefly laser on top. It looks like the laser has packed up main unit is OK. I am being told that I cant see a replacement until next year and that would be a Dragonfly unit with pica tinny adapter - I am meant to be sorting some stuff out for clients and this has dropped me right in it. Does anyone know where there is a dragonfly or firefly that is nice? Please message me thanks.

  9. Sorry Guys, ignore the title error, its a 3.5-14x50 VX-7 Steve
  10. Hey guys, This scope is brand new out of the box and has never been fired on top of any gun. I had another Leupold scope, which I had to send back to the USA. They sent me this one back as a replacement, in the mean time I had bought another scope to use before this one arrived, so now it is surplus to requirements and is being sold. Leupold VX-7 3.5-14x50 LR Varmint reticle. I can also provide the covering letter GMK sent me as to when the scopes came into the country etc... Scope comes with everything in the images, flip up covers etc... I can supply some more images if further are requested of specific things, please ask any questions either on here or by PM, I live in the South East (Buckinghamshire) and anyone is free to view the scope before they buy. PM for contact number as I dont really want to give it out over the forum. Offers must be at least £1000 Thanks, Steve

    Zeiss

    I have seen through a "real Zeiss", and a Duralyt... I have a Duralyt mounted on my .308 700 LTR, and find that it handles recoil ect... Just fine. I shot a Muntjac last saturday at about 90yds at quite a low light dusk with no problems distinguishing the deer. I think there is no difference "really" with the Duralyt or other Zeiss models. I got the pleasure of looking through a target Leupold the other day and I think its about the same. Wont give you a drastic advantage IMHO... Steve
  12. I would say try the suppliers the guys have listed above in this thread ... To be honest, with inflation etc... you wont be saving "tonnes" of money in ammo with reloading until you are recycling cases and turning out a few etc... Also... I have to agree with njc110381, I feel Ackley's comment was sensible but make of it what you will, its up to opinion but the truth remains that for most shooters, unless paid for it/selling on meat. The cash flow is totally negative AKA all expenditure, which also means stopping shooting will obviously help you out of a "situation" faster as there is more finance available then. But yeah, Privi is pretty much as cheap as it gets, but another guy on here, Frank? Used to shoot American Eagle for foxes and the like, and killed many, if the rifle shoots well it will kill as good as a "premium"/"better marketed" round Steve
  13. Oh okay, il try that on the next few once "fixed" back up ...you did a good job on those Steve
  14. Did the teeth ect... stay like that? Because normally the tusks at the front fall to pieces on some? Good job! Steve
  15. I would shoot someone else homeloads in my gun, their gun isnt magically stronger and if they followed a within pressure load im sure it would be fine.... You could probably swap that stuff no problem Steve
