Dont you get any fallow on all that foxing ground up the other side of the racecourse?

Thanks all.

OK Thanks, thats pretty much on the max load by my reckoning, and you're using 100gr boat tails?

Hi all I've just bought some 100gr Hornady btsp for the 243 and my options seem a bit limited with Varget (which I use successfully for the 7mm). I'd quite like to avoid buying another tub of powder, anyone have any comments on this? My safe powder weight seems a very narrow band, I just wanted...

Funny I'd stick with what I got ( all for a tenth of your price as a maximum!) Brno 2 r/f Heym c/f cz c/f (and I have an aya shotgun too which is ok)

Well I have a 7mm08. Not because its fashionable or because I thought i'd like one or anything like that, but simply because one came my way on a really nice rifle (or at least it suited me). I just wanted a rifle I could keep for the rest of my life the way my father and grandfather did. So I...

Cities where a job at a computer screen is more important than a job mending fences, and a leg of meat is more valuable than a good knife......... ......where people wear tight shoes so their feet don't look big and spend money they haven't got on things they dont need...... Only good thing...

I was out lamping rabbits last night (with my trusty bolt action BRNO) with my neighbour who was using his KRICO semi auto. Dont buy one of those. Very accurate on the rare occasions it actually puts a round in the chamber, but last night something horrible went wrong and we spent ten minutes...

I paid £125 for my no.2 BRNO at my local dealer's with a mod and scope. Its almost certainly my favourite rifle. My take on it is theyre not worth much in money but their value is enormous. Is there no way you can hang on to it, you might regret it later. I am told they are better than the later...

I like the New Zealand way of doing things. Have a FAC - you can buy firearms. Of any legal calibre. The seller has to see your FAC Keep them locked up please. Thats it.

Neither of my c/f rifles are chambered for .270 but I like them both a lot, they were both second hand, both £500 or less (with a moderator thrown in). One is a Heym SR20 in 7mm08 and the other is a CZ 550 "standard" in .243. Both are wood stocked. I wouldn't be keen to swap either of them for a...

Great pictures though, at least you had one kind of trigger to pull!

Truth is though in most cases an inch and a half at a hundred yards is quite adequate unless you're shooting paper, isn't it?

I'd like to try some of those aguila interceptors, noise isn't an issue for me either and since using "hypers" I have found subs to be a bit of a damp squib, as it were, they also seem a little variable - some phut, some pop, some actually break the sound barrier I reckon. The yellow jackets and...

Must come and have a look at that Paddy. Excellent video by the way. All the best Tom
