  1. Apex 240

    It's a long shot but at auction there are some Section 1 Firearms Ammunition. Collectors Certificate or RFD required. Primed cases ONLY. Approx these are original Kynoch but look boxer primed so made by Norma in the 1970's but there's 350 of them so that should last a while (I don't have any...
  2. Glaser safety round

    Adders have been a protected species since the 1981 Wildlife and Country act. Glaser's weren't know for their accuracy at the time and were eclipsed by the ballistic Action trauma (BAT) rounds whose marketing was somewhat enigmatic but even if you were to find any their collector value would...
  3. Military bullets

    This opens up a commonly misunderstood topic, so here's a brief history: the "Dum Dum" (named after the factory in India where the pattern of bullet was first made) is interesting enough in itself, the first incarnation of the .303" jacketed round nose propelled by black powder was completely...

  5. Do you need to bring your FAC when buying smokeless powder?

    Yes you are legally required to do so, here's a quote from a post from SD back in 2020 It became law with explosive regulations 2014 prior to that anybody could buy it. To comply with Heath and Safety Explosive Regulations 2014 (2014 No.1638) to acquire smokeless powder the person must be...
  6. Wanted: Rcbs primer pocket swager kit

    Hi Danny I think I have one, I’ll have a root through and make sure it has both the large and small sets in there
  7. Variation Rules anyone with similar experience

    The swapping out of moderators for rifles is a 2 part question, in theory you are not increasing the number of "firearms" on your FAC so the cost side should be zero as it's a 1 for 1. As has just be mentioned, you may be questioned on your "good reason" for the 2 "replacement" rifles as your...
  8. Wanted: Big Boy Brass Wanted

    I have 60x unfired .416 Weatherby brass cases in the original factory boxes if of interest.
  9. Where to get Magtech/CBC 24ga brass shotshells?

    I've just had a look through my own stock of unusual stuff and I do have 20 NFDS unfired cases available at £6 a case if interested. Forming your own is always good fun but you will lose a few through wrinkles from time to time no matter how much you anneal or rotate the brass as you form them...
  10. Thought I wasted my money but I was wrong.

    I bought one after I had a case head separation in .375" H&H on a double rifle. Since using Larry's die I've never had a case separate near the belt. What was interesting on the separated case was the amount of thinning of the brass as the case stretched. Now I understand that Doubles aren't...

  13. 6.5 x 55 PMC ammunition, case failure

    Looking at the 3rd photograph you can clearly see the classic stretch ring in the lower portion of the case, typical of repeated firing and full length re-sizing. It may be an artefact of the photo but looking at the headstamp by the "55" there is a semi circular pattern imprinted on the case...
