Hi PaulNZ, can you ask your friend if they can measure the width of the Unique bolt mag they have please? This needs to be done with a vernier if at all possible. I have a brand new Unique 5 shot mag...

My one and only experience with Optics Planet was not good. The scope I ordered showed as being in stock but it took 3 months, several emails and a couple of phone calls before it was sent....

My Tipton Deluxe carbon fibre rod is still going strong after many years and countless number of barrels cleaned. I opted for a 44 inch rod which allows the jag to be out the muzzle while the handle...

Four or five years ago a Rotorua gun store owner showed me a box of Hornady factory 308 ammo that had one round of 243 ammo in it.

In the thread that I linked it mentions that Deadeye Dick and Sierra knew about this. I have not seen any mention of it on any of the US forums and I find it hard to believe that Sierra wouldn't have...

There is mention of this amongst this thread.

When I asked AMP about drying brass Alex sent an email saying pre-heat the oven at 120°C and put the cases in for 10-15 minutes. That worked fine and I had no discolouration.

Back in the mid 80s I sold a new International in 250 Savage. It was one of the rifles Howard Lopdell imported when I had a small gun shop in Rotorua. It had a very nice stock for a Ruger.

If there is more than 5 thou difference between your fired case neck outside diameter and the sized case then Redding suggest you use more than one bushing.
