    I should add some context. The fawn I was photographing was just in the neighbours property by 100 yards and that's why I left my rifle. The stag was right on the boundary line when I saw him which...

    timattalon liked post by Tentman On thread : Armed walking
    I'm guessing its a bit of a confidence thing, so tackle it like anything new. The suggestion to take a tarp or tent and be prepared to sleep on the track was how we started off, and it did happen a...

    It's unlikely that you will get near 2200 fps with cast bullets even with gas checks leading will be a major problem. 1600 to 1800 fps is more realistic Factory ammunition in those weights runs at 22...

    timattalon liked post by gundoc On thread : Baikal - dragging firing pin issues
    That has way too much firing pin protrusion (1.3 - 1.5mm is correct) and it needs urgent attention from a competent gunsmith. Furthermore the firing pin nose is flat when it should be a true...
