jonno 357 Posted December 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 F8cking Rubbish :< :< Shot 100 tonight then transferred them to mates ticket I got 5 cases stuck in the chamber I inspected the case after firing and the edge of the rim was really sharp as if the firing pin was just striking the rim I didn't have any miss fire but the strike mark on the case was really crappy looking I will strip the action down this weekend and rhave a look at it. I have a EDM extractor which is better than standard, but this wouldn't even extractor The stuck cases were badly scored as well Maybe Nick might know whats happened but I haven't got a clue until it gets an attack by the crew driver Jonno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadeye ive Posted December 8, 2005 Report Share Posted December 8, 2005 Jonno Had a chap come to my range from Sheffield and he gave me a box of budget ammo to fire .......They were Eley Tenex and they were good . The packaging was basic to say the least and they were supplied by THE VALUE BULLET COMPANY. He refered to the shop as Crankies (nick name)I think and they were based in Leeds. Do you know of this supplier ?? Ive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deadeye ive Posted December 8, 2005 Report Share Posted December 8, 2005 Yep ...........sounds like the one Mike. The rounds refered to earlier had bullet heads that were very light grey colour almost The same shade as S/S and was no evidence of wax at all. Bloody accurate and consistant to a degree they were...........You ALWAYS get the odd one that decides it don't want to be part of the group.
