There’s one on D2BC for £350 at the moment!

My Yeoman (one of the rare ejector versions) sold a few years ago for £65 hammer price. The same auctioneer is listing non-ejector Yeomans at £10-20 estimates now. ☹️

If that was a new rifle then it’s about 2/3 the cost of one in the UK & would be snapped up at that price! It’s pretty widely accepted that post Beretta ownership & focus on North American market, the T3 was a rifle specified by accountants & built to a budget. The barreled actions are the best...

As long as the hitch bolts to the bar you can get a plate made which sandwiches between the two. Will send you a photo when I can get one from my mates truck. Meantime I’ve sent you a WhatsApp with more pics & sketch for dimensions & ‘design’ 👍

Find yourself a local fabricator & get them to make you up some thing like this along with a plate that bolts between the tow ball & bracket to slot the spigot into ( the pic shows a reducer piece as my Disco has a 2” receiver hitch ). If you need to travel on a public road you’ll need to secure...

Was planning on doing some bin diving to get some once fired brass ready for my brothers new toy but think he’ll be better off buying some decent factory ammo & starting from that!

Factory Hornady 223… several cases split out of the same box, plus one with a primer in the wrong way around 😳

From the pic that the OP posted, yes they are. Easy to remove the crimp using a neck deburring tool 👍

This time last year I paid £58 per box (50 bullets) for Sako Powerhead Blade 120gn. The same retailer is now selling the same bullets at £73 per box - that’s an increase of over 25% in a year, now that’s inflation!!

I know a chap who may be interested so will let him know - do you ever get to Bisley? - NSRA Meeting in August? or sooner?

A friend of mine shot a fallow doe a few years back & when gralloched she had a foetal sack full of bones which absolutely stank too! In all other ways she was in normal condition. Did have a photo but can’t find it now.

308W is equally good at that type of shot - would post a pick but it’d probably put a few people off their supper, not to mention cause a queue for the outrage bus 😝

About 15 years ago I was sat in my car in Tesco car park eating a sandwich & catching up on calls after a meeting. The space next to me was empty. A last driver approached & slowed, she hauled herself up on the steering wheel to check where she was going then proceeded to turn the car & drive...
