    Longrun liked post by Hunty1 On thread : .284 Chambering & Freebore Specs
    Few different neck specs for the various 284w reamer too from memory, for a hunting rifle pays to go for the roomier one to avoid issues. Have a search on here - was a good thread awhile back.

    Yep, you want to seat pills out long to get best out of the 284. Make up a dummy round with your projectile of choice seated so the end of boat tail is just below the neck/shoulder junction. In your...

    yes - get close in dark and pinpoint - learn a red hind in esterous call - google it and practise it - you can get a RJ caller with it in its sound card - they work - use it when you think he may...

    Longrun liked post by Southcity On thread : Caliber of choice for under 400m
    Good to see the old .308 strong in this thread. With all the ‘new calibres’ around the .308 still stands tall for knock down power and ammo availability. Im a fan as an all rounder as well. I have...

    Longrun liked post by No.3 On thread : Cruising launch
    Any leg is a problem for maintenance on a permanently moored vessel. I'd have one on a trailer launch or something that can be easily hauled out without needing a syncro or a crane. The number of...

    Longrun liked post by SpeightsDrinker On thread : Cruising launch
    Old stern legs can be problematic with poor maintenance. Older boats shaft driven can be more reliable if you don’t want to replace the leg. However when new they have more pros - less drag -...

    Wood below the water = worm and soft spot damage, but you are right that 'rot' is normally a topside thing. If you are unsure, I would get the hull surveyed prior by a good surveyor to check...

    Longrun liked post by Pommy On thread : The next flop?
    Pretty much. Seekins have just released a new rifle with a 3 lug bolt and "exotic materials" on the bolt head so that it can handle hot rounds like 277 Fury. I don't think there's any way you're...
