  1. .270 Garand

    That would have been very easy to shoot, light on the recoil
  2. .270 Garand

    As the garand was originally chambered in .276 pedersen that .270 has a bit of similarity to the original I suppose. I must get around to trying a garand one day on a trip to less restrictive countries.
  3. Your heat this week

    This. “It gets quite hot in summer and quite cold in winter shocker!” It’s just the overhyped media doing what they do. Life carries on as normal for everyone else as it always has.
  4. 8mm Mauser surplus ammo

    Whereabouts in Suffolk? Im guessing you have a shop/premises? Any website?
  5. American planes

    That is unusual, locally to me the USAF do have Atlas air, chartered 747s seen used in and out of Mildenhall and Lakenheath in a white commercial scheme but I haven’t seen any grey ones. A.I says- The USAF uses grey-painted Boeing 747 aircraft primarily for specialized, low-profile roles, such...
  6. Carrying magazines - best practice?

    A loaded mag could be called a loaded rifle? Utter tripe.
  7. Carrying magazines - best practice?

    Nothing wrong with your rounds being in the magazine in your pocket as long as not on the rifle whilst traveling or otherwise in a public place traveling to and from your stalking. I really don’t know where this idea that ammo in a mag in a pocket is not allowed but ammo in a box, wallet or...
  8. Hertfordshire waiting times, sigh

    A chap at work applied for initial grant of SGC Not herts but Cambs, which is all under one umbrella apparently, sort of. Applied around July 24, has received one standard email confirming receipt. Nothing else. Emails to licencing department ignored, PCC ignoring emails. Utter disgrace.
  9. Solar powerpack for camping etc

    Well at this current time the national electricity supply is being 1/3 solar. So, yes, somedays we do.
  10. For Sale: Eternal 12g lever action Shotgun (13inch barrel) - Custom Work

    I was wondering how you would justify the variation. Conditioned for practical shotgun?
  11. For Sale: CZ452 Stutzen .22LR

    Keep it. A stutzen may not tick the boxes of many modern shooters but who cares. Owning a lovely thing is reason enough to keep it.
  12. Heating oil

    £916 is starting to look like a bargain with the way it’s looking
  13. Back to a childhood passion

    Very common for modellers to get back into it after many years after enjoying it in childhood. I started again in my 40s, found it a great diversion during stressful times in my life. It’s well known to be a good hobby for taking your attention from other more troubling thoughts. There’s even...
  14. Heating oil

    Unlikely to be in the 90s. Price was £1.33 yesterday.
  15. Magtec primers. Are CCI worth twice the price?

    We won’t ever see the price going down much.
