  1. 223. rifle

    None of the above are a patch on a Tikka!
  2. Am i daft??

    Maybe you. It also depends how you view deer, are they trophies, a source of income from meat , or pests.
  3. Quad sticks - any insider secrets I should know?

    They don't, the adjustment holes are sleeved over. Maybe an upgrade ?
  4. Quad sticks - any insider secrets I should know?

    My own humble opinion;- Had cheaper aluminium quad sticks, used well over 4 or 5 years. Upgraded to viperflex carbon fibre, it seemed like a ot of money for what are essentially "sticks"....but they're lighter, stronger, not cold to the touch and above all, near silent to operate.
  5. 223 case separation.

    I think the author was referring to modern alloying,refining and manufacturing processes.
  6. 223 case separation.

    Had my first case separation, PPU brass, 55grn vmax with 25grns of vitN135. Case reloaded 5 times, no obvious abnormalities on inspection prior to loading.. The cheaper brass has served well, but there's a reason Lapua is more expensive 😁
  7. RWS small rifle primers

    So far they've been ok, but they're tight to seat.
  8. RWS small rifle primers

    Has anyone noticed rws small rifle primers have changed from nickel colour to brass colour?...and they're definitely tighter to seat.
  9. Am i daft??

    What type of wood do you find works best as a spear?
  10. Newbie essentials

    Tactical vest ???? Wt-flip.
  11. Am i daft??

    Deer stalkers managed fine for many years without thermal. Don't see them as an essential piece of kit, only an aid. You'll be fine.
  12. Petition on trail hunting.

    How many entitled horse riders would support deer stalkers if say, deer culling could no longer be done by members of the public? Zero, that's how many. Country sports take place in the country, that's where the similarities end.
  13. Thoughts on Nosler rifles

    No, the nosler stock is better than most anyway.
  14. Thoughts on Nosler rifles
