Good points nd. I haven't taken off or checked bases. I will play with the action screws. My Ruger is a bit special in that regard.

Shot the rifle today and was all over an a4 page at 100m. These were with 100gr. Going to try some 87gr which its designed for with a 12 twist. I'm not hopeful though would like to be surprised....

Would a dark or possibly ebony finish be good for it?

A few things to come together then. Sounds like your pretty handy to do the work yourself. There is a myriad of help and knowledge from posters on here. Hard to think how I got on pre-internet. Hutch...

Cool, thanks for the headcheck on that smiffy. Someone was kind enough to forward me the NH data which is the only strong reference point to go with my other skerics of data.
When will you be making...

Loaded up some yesterday. Form die from simplex works well. Melted a few tips of the neck annealing. Think I got the knack after a few. Started out at max nick harvey data which was in a no1 mk3...

Keeps life interesting. I didn't know bugger all about this though am learning more thanks to the forum.
Thanks gur, I have a form die as well. Be keen to know how the 117gr round nose work out. Is...

Yep, 100's it is. I have read people stabilising the sierra pro hunters ok.
Gotta watch out for those carnitas though aye.
Cheers Dicko

Cool, do the 87gr go alright on deer and pigs? Ever tried any 100gr?

It has E stamped in a few places...I thought that was eddystone...good spotting!

Yeah, thanks
MD..I'm thinking 20inches bare might be good. Will take up tentmans offer of the quickload projection as well.

Cool, thanks. I have a feeling it will suffer like a 243 if lopped too short. I'm saying that I only need it out to 150 200m max and it weighs 8 1/2lb as is

What's your project smiffy?
Walker, do you if your mate shot 100gr in it?
I guess first edition nick harvey manual would be the go. Other users had recommended using the higher end of 250 savage or...

Yeah, its built for 87gr with the 12 twist barrel though have read that the short 100gr go ok as well.

Here's a blast from the past that I picked up recently. Built on a p14 action in a bsa stock. All in good condition. It has a 26inch barrel with a 1in 12 twist. I'm waiting for some dies to...
