    One came from Lake Sumner, the other Kikorangi, just gotta find a stand of reasonably straight Manuka and cut one down then let it dry out before a quick sanding and oil.

    Phil_H liked post by Tahr On thread : .222 turning back the clock
    Yeah, its a dilemma when it comes to threading a classy rifle, but I wouldn't even have a .22 without a suppressor nowadays. Our hearing (and other people's and our dogs') is too precious. At...

    I think you will find both those powders a bit slow for 110g or even 130 gr especially the 760 You need to be looking at 2206h H335 BLC2 8208. H335 and 2206h go good with the 130s
