   The Nosler Custom competition should work in the 1-14 Omark if you can find them, they had been fairly well priced buying through the NRANZ but like all things the new shipment will cost more once...

   We actually saw that issue in action the previous week. A guy was shooting some piss-weak .308 ammo at 1000yds and nothing registered.

   Primers are never a good indicator. Check for ejector marks and brass shavings, stiff bolt lift,and 'clickers' (primary extraction cam working hard).

   Although not quite as old, nor experienced as you grandpamac, I still manage to make my presence felt at our club shoots whilst using one of my 6.5x55’s. Whether it be the 1900 Oberndorf, 1916 M96,...

   FTR Classic medium and long range shooting is interesting. A maximum score is 61 10X which means at 600 yards all 10 counting shots have landed inside the 1/2 moa (3"diameter) ring. A score of 60...

   I thought .257 Roberts would be a doddle but it turned into a bit of a challenge. Wasnt helped by the OAL of the Kimber Hunter mag which a clever (Jaco) gunsmith sorted for me.

    A method that I have found to be useful for rear locking actions is to measure. the length of the case over a series of firings of an individual case with a chosen load. If the case stretches (and it...

    I pretty much ignore primers now, except if they're pierced. They can be softer or harder. And different brass is also softer or harder...if a I get a stiffish bolt I will try another brand of brass...

    NZTopo50 is good. There was a thread about this recently. For pure navigation, I prefer iHike-GPS.

    NZTopo50 is a very good app. Free version is good. You can choose either north or south island. New Zealand Topo Maps is fine too.
