Anyone slimmed down a Quake Claw?
Great grippy sling, but just a tad wide, so just wondered if anyone had trimmed the wings on a Claw at the top to make it more rectangular and thinner. Looks like all the strength is the middle inch, so trimming shouldn’t effect it’s integrity. Just wondered if anyones done it and what their...

If anyone has used a lamp that attaches to their scope, you've most likely found the spill catches the moderator and glares in your scope, ending with you not being able to see what the lamp is illuminating.
....I use a 67mm lamp and nipped into B&Q and picked up a 68mm downpipe (guttering) straight connector. A quick wrap of tape on the lamp and push it on. Now the spill is caught and no more glare off your moderator.

If your bolt is harder to close than normal check why rather than knocking it closed. Ironically I had only deep cleaned my rimfire yesterday but by this morning something with lots of legs had managed to find it’s way into the right extractor recess!

Other way is to put duct tape over 3/4 over the scope's objective lens.

Purchase a length of interesting tweed, being sold for charity is a nice touch, and also some waxed cloth to make your own roll-up shooting blanket seat/rifle rest:

Looks like a R 380 gearbox.
All I know is I now have a 16-year old Landrover with NO leaks from either the primary or transfer box.

Not seen it mentioned.
Don't be scared to take the stock off and clean all the metal you cannot see. Zero won't be affected.
Store rifles muzzle down. Oil the barrel and it all flows down the the bottom. Dry patch and you're good to go.

Land Rovers have oil leaks so that owners can tell when the oil needs topping up - if it's not leaking there's no oil in it any more so needs topping up!
The old ones are the best ones.
Exactly what I joked with the Technician when telling him the importance of attention to detail!

Peter Hammerich of the German benchrest club used an unused sewer in Munich as a range. He gave me a 6mm PPC round as a keepsake back in the 80s, I still have it.Agreed but I struggle with the underground range as too close to Green Park Tube.
