  1. As stated in title winchester sx2/3 stock shim. Would prefer a kit but just the right hand shim would do. Thanks for looking.
  2. No worries, didn't think you did. Thanks for clearing that up.
  3. Si, I hope your not referring to me as being a time waster. I plan on using this forum for future purchases and don't want people getting the wrong idea. I'm sure your not, it just looks this way reading the replies. As I stated in a pm I brought a winchester x2 on Sunday when you informed me that your gun was being sold to a local shooter. Cheers
  4. Hi Si, nice gun. Used one years ago. Been looking for a nice s/h semi for a while. I'll take it please. pm your tel number and I'll get back to you monday morning. Thanks.
  5. Hi, I've got a 101 xtr 28" m/c 12g which I have shot from the age of 12. Great gun. Chromed bores, 3" chambers. Fired thousands of shells over the years. It does kick a bit as its a light weight model. I had to take it in to the gunsmith last year as it developed a fault of ejecting unfired shells. Still not bad when you consider how much use its had (22 years, used a few times each month). If you can find one which hasn't had much use it will last for years. I'd like one in 20g.
  6. Thanks for the advice everyone, Dead-ive no I haven't got DSC but I do shoot .223 a lot (run a farm and have set up an informal range for my friends and I). Mr ****** is a good shooting buddy so I guess it won't be that much of an issue, just a shame I won't be able to have the full use of the .243.
  7. Hi Everyone, I've held my FAC for 1 1/2 years for .17hmr and .223, I have recently applied for and received a variation for a .243 for deer stalking and fox control. My FLO insisted that I am accompanied by a mentor whilst deer stalking, but can shoot foxes and zero on my own. I am fine with this as it's good to be shown the ropes by an old hand. However, upon receipt of my updated FAC the wording states as follows. "The .243 rifle, .243 sound moderator and ammunition shall be used for shooting fox/deer and for zeroing on ranges, or land deemed suitable by the chief officer of police for the area where the land is situated and over which the holder has lawful authority to shoot and accompanied by Mr ******" I have obviously left out the name of my mentor. I read the above statement as meaning that Mr ****** has to accompany me when I use the .243 at all times. I called my FLO, he assured me that I only need to be mentored whilst deer stalking, but I'm worried that if I'm out foxing, and for some reason meet up with the police, when they examine my FAC they will expect me to be accompanied by my mentor. Anyone else being mentored for deer? Am I right to worry about foxing and zeroing on my own? p.s. Great forum. Thank for any info. Simon
