Farmers to be paid for shooting badgers

Just dont buy a sectional rod for the 17, and clean as soon as possible after a shooting session, before the powder residue hardens

Or use electric,,, Not sure how fast reacting a car door lock would be

Those requirements in a vehicle would not be needed by the vast majority of owners, indeed , designing and building such a vehicle for such diverse purposes could be seen as a waste of resources in itself. A bit like the car i presently run, it has a range on 600 miles and will top 140 MPH, yet neither capability has been used whilst in our ownership

So you have a gun that the combined cash of 4600000 people in the UK could not buy, Just a bit of irrelavant fag packet maths, sorry, i could not resist

A choke is a constriction, a hose crimper works by compressing a thick collar onto the hose in a very controlable way. compressing a barrel would be easy, might need a slight honing after to get the exact dimension wanted

Has anybody tried using a hose crimper to put a little choke back in?

The vote should be UK wide as it affects all of us, think we in England would give nicola what she wanted

55 gn siera, fill to bottom of neck with varget.. not scintific or recommended but worked best for me -
Years ago, a gunsmith in a london shop that sold Darne guns said the felt recoil mainly came from the cartridge moving in the chamber, the sliding breach stopped this. Have since read thad a hard kicking gun can be tamed by putting paper spacers on the face of the cartridge

You cant be sure about anything with a cambelt, except that it will break, Worst is to leave for a year or two, then run engine, best is running all day every day

222/223 are either side of a bit of a chasm, the 222 is a great upgrade for the hornet whilst still being nice to shoot. the 223 is more like a 22 250 with a little less puff, The extra 200 feet per seem to come at a cost in user friendly ness, I have had all three calibers over the years, Still have fond memories of the 222, but not many of the 22 250

Think the Mini is 1 in 9, It does best with 55 g sierra bullets with the case filled to bottom of neck with varget
