   Greetings Moa Hunter, Not quite. The primer backed out of the case just means that the pressure is not high enough to stretch the cases. I have not noted any leakage with backed out primers. We are...

   Marty Henry liked post by grandpamac On thread : Resizing. 308 to .243, help?? Or a dumb idea?

   Sorry Larrygoat, Bad idea to neck down that much. You are still going to need neck annealing after which the cases may not shoot that well due to uneven neck thickness. Buy some proper .243 cases...

   Greetings All, The .276 Enfield cartridge was a cracker though. Not much chop as a military cartridge but wouldn't have looked out of place in a modern rifle. A 7 mm semi short magnum. Grandpamac.

   Greetings All, As far as shooting handedness and eye dominance goes I suspect that many, if not most can shoot of either shoulder and with either eye. I know that I can. Some however have a dominant...

   Greetings All, I have seen one military style .223 pump, not quite like that. It had been bought to replace a semi auto that had been handed in and now faces the same fate. Mum's the word on the...

   Thanks for the mention Flyblown, I have loaded both the .358 Win and the .350 Rem Mag, both my sons rifles. Both are easy cartridges to load other than the short mag on the .350 limiting the...

   Moa Hunter liked post by grandpamac On thread : Getting ahead of new range rules

   Greetings Again All, A few notes as I see things. First the current larger rifle ranges, like the ones at Taupo, Tokaroa and Tauranga are either already registered or will become so. Some of the...

    stevodog liked post by grandpamac On thread : .35 cal, why is it so rare here?

    Greetings All, I think one of the problems with the .35 calibre is that most US rifles have slow twist barrels. This does not allow the use of high BC projectiles and without them they do not beat...

    Dead is better liked post by grandpamac On thread : Trying to be a bit precise

    Agree with Mauser308 above. Stop faffing around between shots, just shoot your group (I assume three shots) without changing your position. Don't bother to let the barrel cool between shots just...
