    Puffin liked post by Wingman On thread : Seriously underrated 6.5x47 Lapua
    A very easy mod to just re-chamber the existing barrel as long as the throat and bore is in good condition, the 6.5x47 is a straighter wall than the .260 and has a longer neck and 30 deg shoulder so...

    Puffin liked post by GravelBen On thread : Kimber Hunter .280 Ackley Improved
    Only with a 22LR, trying out the idea of tuning accuracy with screw tension which I read about on an American rimfire forum. IIRC I did find some apparent improvements, but wasn't (I'm still not) a...

    Puffin liked post by sneeze On thread : Kimber Hunter .280 Ackley Improved
    As a user of the 280ai for some years when this issue popped up I went down the rabbit hole trying to find the mystical .014 in its physical form. After gauging more than a couple of chambers I have...

    Puffin liked post by Kiwi Greg On thread : What caliber are you shooting F-Open with?
    Fixed it for you :) The 6.5x47 Lapua would be my choice in 6.5, in 6mm it would be the 6 Dasher :) The lack of recoil & barrel wear makes up for their ballistic disadvantage to the big sevens &...

    Puffin liked post by 10-Ring On thread : 6.5 Creed V 7-08

    Puffin liked post by sako75 On thread : Family P-Class back in action this summer
    I remember doing a regatta from Elsdon. Strong winds and inexperience saw a few of us capsized and blown across the other side of the harbour. That would’ve been mid 70s when I was 10

    I've almost exclusively caught my fish on Hare and Copper with a Pheasant Tail. That may have something to do with the fact that's pretty much all I use. I've got a soft spot for Totara flats,...
