   grandpamac liked post by caberslash On thread : .308 into .243?

   Better results if you run it through a 7mm08 or 260 Rem die first. Shoulder to neck angle on the 243 is pretty steep compared to the 308 so I would also anneal the brass first. As mentioned,...

   grandpamac liked post by Ryan_Songhurst On thread : Pet loads for the 7x57

   What say you all? Looking around the internet there seems to be two different data sets for each projectile weight, one being very anemic and one with a bit more spice. I'm guessing there's a lot of...

   grandpamac liked post by gundoc On thread : Old Single shot rifle

   It is a standard .303 Martini-Enfield rifle and the 98 on the top of the body is the year of the Government purchase order (not necessarily the year of delivery). Not all M-E's were conversions as by...

   Second year hunting; shoot anything you can carry. Worry about being a grumpy old man once you’ve shoot 100! Honestly you did the right thing. There’s miles to many deer around, they’re better in...

   grandpamac liked post by gundoc On thread : Calculating front sight height ? ( maths heavy )

   Divide 25,000 mm by 530 = 47.17 (approx). Divide 150mm x 47.17 = 3.17mm front sight height change.

   grandpamac liked post by Tahr On thread : Redundant Calibres

   I’m inspired. Got the 6.5x55 in the Ute and I’m off for the night. 10 rounds of 140 grn Gold Dot should do some damage if I do my bit. Realistically I should only need one or two. Really, I’m more...

    grandpamac liked post by Tahr On thread : Redundant Calibres

    It surprises me that 6.5x55 is mentioned in this thread as possibly being redundant. Tikka still make them (as does Blaser). There must be thousands of the M96 & 93 ex service rifles in NZ. Mine is...

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