I love AI cases - so buy a 22creedmoor. Shoot the heavier pills, but much faster than a 223AI. Massive difference on game with 75eldm or 85.5 bergers. Im running them slow but accurate - hornadys...

I basically dont own calibres that are not AI'd. 308 ans 204 Ruger excluded. Never had any issues with a ackley, my ackleys are some of the most accurate rifles Ive ever shot. Maybe its just...

From the other side of the fence, I have 3 improved cases. 243ai, 280ai and a 338 Norma improved. Fire forming is simply more shooting, I like shooting, the fire forming loads are generally as...

True Flite did my Howa match barrel 6 months ago, warned be that they couldn't guarantee it would still be as accurate, they did a prefect job for a very reasonable price

My LSA55 in 22-250 cost me $410 in 1976 or 77, for brand new rifle, genuine Tikka rings, and Weaver 3x scope. I was on about $110 a week in wages and had to put it on 6 months finance. As Scott has...

You are semi right. The BSA CF2 was an absolute abomination as a rifle. A moron must have designed it. Railway iron is lighter. Best.

Yeah. As I said, a lot less choice back in say the 70s. A mid priced rifle these days (say a Tikka Superlite for $1900) would have cost just over $100 in 1971. If you paid $400 for a new rifle back...

I like old and new. Quality is quality old or new. Some of the wood on the older rifles is much nicer looking than the modern equivalents but this is a cosmetic rather than functional difference.

Never trust any diesel speedo in NZ, better to judge milage by the gear knob and steering wheel (and drivers seat), seen plenty of shiny smooth ones on "150,000km" cars.
