    And so after 89 1/4 hours of planing, chiselling, scraping, sanding and much thinking and looking, here is what I have. This is after the first ‘base coat’ of oil, which now needs to dry a couple of...

    Here we go again… Made a decent start on the latest stock. This one is for a Zastava .223 I have, that was going to be a 6x45. Will stay a .223 for now, because I’ve already got one 6x45. The...

    Micky Duck liked post by Hunter_Nick On thread : best 308 projectile for shooting sika at close range
    Make sure you hit the shoulder and you won’t have any issues with damn near any projectile in the .308. Keep the shot well forwards and there will be plenty of resistance to get the bullet opening...

    Yes, you can definitely get a new tube put on it. Make it a stainless one, and it’ll last forever.

    Mathias liked post by Hunter_Nick On thread : Twist for a short mag .223
    Thanks for the input everyone. I reckon I’ll just go with a 1-12 like it currently has. The way I look at it, the .223 is a varmint rifle, so I’ll twist it for those projectile weights. I’ve got a...

    The 168 z max is the same as the a-max with a different coloured tip.

    I totally get that faster twist is safer, but with a short mag I reckon there’s a point where the pills are too long and robbing horsepower. The better question would be: What is the heaviest...

    I saw a dude dump a new VX6 on the ground at the range, after the rings somehow jumped out of the back of the Sako dovetail. Couldn’t believe it myself, but it happened. The dude said ‘the shop...

    Yep. CLR is the ticket. Apply some with a cotton bud, and you’ll be amazed at how it bubbles then wipes straight off. Lifechanging!

    Yeah I had a new model stainless 7 that was 1-9 twist. Worked well with 75gr Hornady BTHP projectiles. Good game killers too. Wish I still had it….
