To answer the OP
Minimum gear: dies, press, scales, bullet block. I would avoid lee scales (they're tiny and finicky) but their press will do if you're on a budget. Just be smoth and consistent and...

Point of diminishing returns with all things "consistent". I'm not arguing that consistency isn't good. I'd like to see evidence.

Got any? "lol"

And I am all about the down-range, I don't want...

Yeah I don't think there's any shortcuts. Buy a pack of each brand /scrounge a handful of each and make an afternoon of it.

Check all your screws are tight. Action, stock, bases, scope.

aaaaaaand thread done.

Never forget the underarm bowl!

I'd be happy to make this BP only. It kinda already is.
I'd much rather keep the exterior all original (such as it is... sporterised :/)
Sell your best barrel?

Seems to be a common thing in the states but I've never heard it mentioned here or seen any guns done.

Is there anyone that does it? I assume the original barrel is spill bored or reamed, then the...

Always thought "animal products for animal products" and "plant for plant"
IE I wouldn't put plant oils on leather. Neatsfoot is pretty much it, and you can usually get feet/ shin bones from...

Sounds like too much primer. I don't know about 760 my chart shows it on par with 2209 which is relatively slow. Manual also shows you should be cracking that speed quite easily with a full case of...

Cute picture. But no. The primer isn't a little spark at the end of the case, it will fill the entire case with flame.

And I'd be interested to see any evidence of the powder-location-vs-accuracy...

Q: What happens when your case has lots of room left?
A: Nothing.
But it is considered poor practice, even though no manufacturer, despite trying, has managed to replicate the "secondary explosive...

Can't argue with that. Nice one.

And this would be where the advice to verify/ re-work up your loads with every new tin of powder comes from.

Any meat my bro. I've done rabbit and possum. Beef is traditional. Haven't tried poultry myself but butcher used to. Not as chewey.

No Just the ones I got . They're these. I pity the fool that pays $116USD though!

I assume most people here are learned enough to recognise ongaonga, native stinging nettle.
It can be made into a refreshing tea.

More usuefully, you could have posted a pic of kumarahou,...

Do that then, makes for easier filing.
Most guns I deal with are made of steel :)

A bit of steel bar and some quality time with your favourite hand files..

I have some chinese lenser knock-offs. CREE type LED. Wiill fit 35mm rings/mounts with bushing (like pvc mentioned above) 3xAAA. Flood-spot adjust. 80lumens IIRC
My eyes aint good but I can pick up...

3F :D

Is either front or rear sight in a dovetail? Mark it with a white dot, or scribe line and smack it over with a hammer/punch. easy peasy.

Seems I can upload stupid big .jp(e)g pictures, but the limit on .png is tiny. Which means I have end up having to convert/duplicate any pics I want to upload.
Is there a reason for this?

Also...

I've eyed up their double/combos. Never had a play with one but "cheap" seems to be the consensus in reviews. I did have an old baikal 12 that was a beauty though, so... You'll just have to get one...

mmmm-mmm. I got a chubby just thinking about it.


Sako 85 was my first thought too. So was .458 Lott.
