    Brilliant, thanks for all the info. That all makes sense to me. I’ll slug the bore and start piecing it together from there. I’ll be sure to be in touch at some point! There are a number of black...

    It’s such a great cartridge, especially in the right delivery system. It’s my go to now, and it’s the only rifle that I’ll use this roar. Shot a hind on Wednesday night with it under the light...

    Bagheera here are my observations having owned both a 6x45 and .223. The 6x45 made heaps of sense when .223s were twisted 1-12 as standard. These days a 1-8” .223 will eclipse a 6x45. Example: ...

    From personal experience and that of others that have used both, the ELD-M is better than the TMK for close range hits- it’s slightly less ‘splashy’ . The TMK has a slightly thicker jacket, but a...

    I thought about bringing some home with me from the US (currently over there) but it turns out I would need an export permit, and it got waaay too admin intensive for a few packets of projectiles. ...

    I walked in and out of there with a girlfriend the weekend before the cyclone went through, via shorts track. It took us 7 1/2 hours in horrendous conditions, so you could do it faster. Just be aware...
