Ive been watching several forumites "progress" with the lokes of the Arken Zulu with great interest. Certainly Mintie and Tahr are making good use of their's.

What Im wondering about are the...

I decided to pursue this a bit and was able to get a spare hour plus to throw some new loads and get to the range.

So the cheapie Hornadys with a fairly "loose" weight tolerance were identified...

Hey just banter both ways . . . .

Now MD that's very uncharitable to take my shooting to task. I'd already covered this and previously shot two 5 shotters with my K Hornet of 0.6 and 0.4 - with the same target and a 7x scope. It...

So here is a OCW test shot on Sunday last. Conditions were practically perfect, just a bit of mirage which we seldom encounter here, off a pretty good benchrest at 100M. I always shoot a group with...

Thanks Puffin for your most excellent posts on this subject, especially in the linked threads. To your thoughts I would add that many shooters (me included haha) are seeking groups to stoke their...

I've been watching this YouTube series https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=K7MJrFUFDWY now these were bloody tough blokes, in true survival situations. The blokes who survived must have had huge mental...

Google Dan Newberry and OCW (optimum charge weight). This method uses minimal rounds without a chrony and really works if you are mentally disciplined enough not to chase the 3 shot "groups rabbit"...

Gentlemen - thoughts on a projectile for a 18" 1:9 twist? Thanks

Marvelous yarn. Thanks.

3 shot groups can tell lies.

Treat it as a 6 shot group and adjust from there. For me, one up and 1 right. But I never fuss with a zero off a bit, it'll be good to 300 plus anyway and after...

I don't think you need to worry too much about the trigger, Mine has been done over (before I got it, it's at 715gms) but that doesn't hold it back . When Darren @rambo6mmrem ran his competition...

Good to hear. I know you have some pretty nice rifles, how do you think the superlite compares to the more top shelf stuff (very subjective I know)?

The reciever will fit just fine, bottom metals maybe, maybe not . . .

Any oil/hydrocarbon will render them deader than a dead thing ( but clean your cases thoroughly after or the deading process will be ongoing!)

But if you think about it, if one goes off all it...

Even with factory stuff you're not immune.

Loacal gunshop owner had a Remington factory 300BLK rifle in the other day. Welded shut by the case. The pulled barrel was ok, no obstruction. The...

Hahaha, maybe Im "trans" - I've got a 25GT dummy case to hand and have checked it for feeding etc, however it's looking like it'll be too long for the action to be optimal. I'm also thinking that we...

I did. Went sideways!

I do the see the benefits of the 22-250 suggestions and just for shits in giggles built a cheap 22 Creedmoor by rechambering a Savage 1: 9 223. It shoots well with up to 75's and worked out OK but is...

Haha that has also been in consideration - I shot a lot of stuff including my best ever Tahr with a wee Mauser Kurz 250 before I sold it to nor-west.

One consideration is brass loss, shooting...

So today I received a dummy 25GT case from @doubleshot - thanks Darren. I was pondering something somewhere between this (a 257) and it's current 22-250 barrel.

This shows some...

Use the safety. That's what it's for. Only place in the world stupid enough to teach use of the "half cock" is NZ - go figure (and our hunting safety stats are no better than other countries for...

Nice. I wonder what a Stag would make og a snoring old fart wrapped up in a bivvy bag if he stumbled over one in the dark (asking cause a cow walked right through my tent one night but that was pre...

Is yours a chrome moly?

Ian at Hardy barrels says they'll have 1:7 twist 257 cal barrels going within a few months . . . . Hmmmm
