    I had a Savage Mod.12-VLP .204 for a while. Very accurate (once the previous owner's bodged crown job was fixed), lovely to fire from a rest or bipod, but... I didn't know what the yanks meant by...

    That’s what I did when I had quite a few. Fired the primed case, suppressor on, into an old gumboot. Flames will come out the end of the barrel so watch where you point it or you will have scorched...

    I just knocked this up for a mate as his rabbit control rifle. It is a .22 BSA 12/15 target rifle, barrel shortened to 20" and a Parker Hale suppressor fitted, left receiver wall cut down for...

    Good to know it works, I need to get one. I was seeing a lot of cats just before lockdown so after a 4 week break I am expecting plenty of settled rabbits and a few cats to hammer this weekend.

    Hi Tertle, I will concede that yes she is wearing a helmet and thus obeying the lay in that respect. However, she is not wearing it correctly or in a manner that prevent injury if she was to come...

    One of the few privileges we have left is where we can spend our own money. I like Davey, I like his products, have a number of them. But, I will never forgive him for jumping on the "anti" bandwagon...

    Joe_90 liked post by Ben Waimata On thread : Swazi - Davey’s semiautomatic stance .
    I think in this country we all agree that we don't want everyone to be able to access AR15 and Ak47 rifles, which is why we've had a firearms licencing system and why the police are supposed to be...

    Joe_90 liked post by Cordite On thread : Rifle grip shape - Why?
    Ergonomically, designing handles for using middle finger as trigger finger allows a better grip. The thumb-index pinch grip is natural and strong. And the flexor tendons to the middle finger also...

    My take is wooden stocks require the grain to run longways though the grip for strength. With modern plastics, carbon fibre and fibreglass you can have any shape you want.

    It wouldn't necessarily change the cost, but the compromise then is that it may then be better for prone, rather than snap shots... A more traditional shape is a better jack-of-all-trades than a...

    a well made stock with nice palm swell and cheek rest comes up like a shotgun and is "relaxed?" to shoot, it feels like you just have to tap the trigger to go off its how my sako 75 feels when it...
