    Big bear, my safe is a different brand but has a 3 point lock system. Mine is a pipe key which are hard blanks to find. Just guessing on your needs...

    Hard loaded you’ll get 2900+fps in a 21. No chance of 2950+ with factory 130 ammo in a short tube or likely even longer ones with most tailor mades . But a 130 at 2850 works a treat!

    PhilH, I reckon the Italian mincers like Reber have standard size dies and cutters. Replacement parts should be no drama. Try over here, plenty of Italian mincers being sold.

    With regard to lapping, ShooterNZ is on the money. I’ve had two Remington mountain rifles in 7mm-08 and .280R. Both needed to be bedded and free floated to get them to shoot. They were both fussy...

    Dama dama liked post by Dicko On thread : Desirable features of an all round NZ hunting rifle
    Wood stocks might not rot but after a week in the rain I’ve had them swell considerably so safety’s would function and likely impacted the accuracy. It’s good to take this out of the equation.

    My .02 for what it’s worth. Identify the case that’s the tightest to chamber in your rifle. Use that case to set your FL die. Gradually adjust the die down till it chambers with just minimal force....
