  1. Just pick up a nice little. 22 hornet from the pawn shop for a cool $165. Seems like it will be a nice little round to play with on the reloading bench. I need to scrub the bore and order a new scope ,base and rings too, what it's got would work but I need to stretch my neck abit out if my comfort zone . Any how any of you guys mess with the hornet any?
  2. Honestly can't see my self with the fury. I really have the vibe is going to go the course of the. 224 Valkyrie that came out like a year and some change ago. Was supposed to be the greatest thing for the AR platform and all. With in about three months if it being mainstream people where talking about how they where getting case head separation, pressure spikes, two shot brass life, heck some of the bullets where being pissed so hard through that round where shattering at around the 300yd mark. I think it's going to be a good round for the PRS guys and such but I cant really see my self us
  3. Oooo trust me I know lol. Main reason I started reloading. Seems it goes away after the 600rd mark or so ?
  4. Ugh you guys are making me want to add a Swede to my collection ? problem is all new production rifles are starting out at $850 or so but above what I like to pay for a base rifle . Maybe I can find a old Swedish mauser and sporterize it. My mosin needs some company any how lol
  5. Also pretty sure you can get a limb saver slip on recoil pad on eBay for like $20
  6. Well that would explain why all I see from guys over there are Blazer Tika and the like. Too rich for my blood though lol. Rather buy a cheap rifle or used rifle and spend the next year adding after market parts ?
  7. Good to see Norma is expensive as hell everywhere else as well lol. Seems then and Lapua are always going to cost an arm and a leg. And that makes sense but figured the old military actions wouldn't mind the higher pressures, it is unjust the Swedish stuff in general? Because I know you can't break most mosins if you tried and don't even get me started on the enfields and and M1917s, guess it might be pressure differences in modern powders ?
  8. Are you guys hand loading or is Swede just a common off the self cartridge in the UK? It's one of those that you either need to order online or pay 2x the price in store because it's so uncommon. Again you can find creed in about three or four bullet weights and designs at every Walmart, gas station and hard where store now for $20. Last box of Swede I saw $48.95 and they said it was because no one ever asks for it. I will say though online prices are pretty respectable. I've been told factory ammo out side of Europe is pretty low loaded and just plain doesn't give the cartr
  9. What's the scope height like? Seems like it might need a code riser to make it comfortable to shoot imo
  10. Was curious if the whole 6.5 craze has made it over the pond yet? The 6.5 Grendel has become kind of the do all for the semi auto crowds (got one my self in a little 12" AR pistol config) but has kind of dropped out of the spot light due to the. 224 Valkyrie and 6mm ARC however the 6.5 Creedmore has become the new wonder round. Everyone from target shooters, hunters, to long range competition guys are raving about it. It's become the "first real rifle" for alot of young shooters after they get the. 22lr down pact. Low recoil, high bc, super accurate so on and so on. Has got to the point abo
  11. Might not be able to get a gas version but what about a bolt action ? Unita (?) Precision sells a bolt action upper figure so.thing like this would be all the rage in the UK. Keep one lower and just swap uppers. Don't see how it would violate any laws either.

  13. Wanted to know if there's any welders on here. Had a few questions regarding process equipment and just general welding culture from across the pond
  14. And here I am thinking I made a break though on a new idea lol. I will say though that box just looks like they tool a poison station and add a place for the trap to go. But hay if it works who can complain
  15. Yeah those are extremely popular over here either them or the little clinch traps. Yall are really the first buch ive ever heard complaints about them from, then again im not a mole guy. Last time I played with one I was able to set it with my hand and foot,was a little irritating but compared to somthing like a 220 or a 330 meh.
  16. Figured I'd share this little experiment with you guys. So ever since we got rid of the feral barn cats we had we've had an influx of rats ,mice ,squirrels chipmunk and so on. The mice are pretty easy to take care of with a decon block hear and there chipmunks seem pretty co tent with staying out of my way and the squirrels.....well small game season starts in a month or so lol. The rats how ever are a different story. Seems they won't come near the poison what so ever almost never see them in the day except a few times when I'm moving stuff around the yard so can't shoot them ( well at least
  17. He pops in over on trapperman.com from time to time, cool guy
  18. Yeah that's the problem with the xsite it's a on piece mount so you can't really shim it as far as I can see. You d OK have two Allen bolts on the bottom and I guess if I can loosen them I can slide a washer on the rear on to can't the scope down buuuuut this bolts are in there some kind of tight. This is the scope I'm talking about by the way just to clarify (sorry it's minutes on my AR and not the it gun only picture I had of it just on hand lol
  19. So was hoping someone here might have so advice on this. Basically got a small rat problem starting. Their not messing with the traps too much anymore and don't come out much in the day so figure is doing to have to be a job for NV. Can't use my. 22lr for various reasons so I tried mounting my ATN Xsite II on my Benjamin maximus .22 but I can't get enough downwards adjustment to sight the gun in properly. My maximus comes stock with a 11mm dove tail so I have to use a dove tail to pic rail adapter which raises it up a bit. It was the lowest one I could find though so wanted to see if anyone h
  20. I've actually been meaning to post some pics of my pcp on there and get some advice lol. I'll tell you you guys are something else when it come to air arms.
  21. Shot this guy this morning, some how got caught in the roll feeder, can't say it was a hunt but a dead hot is a dead hog
  22. Seems to be the same in alot if the public places I fish . Just about everyone and their mom wants to catfish around this time of the year so they go to Walmart and get every stink bait and punch bait you can name . Got Everything from catapla worm flavor to beef heart l,iver and cheese and shad blood. Seems after seeing so much of it alot of these public water cats just pain aren't interested. And actually the whole sponge deal is a super common deal here. Most basic form is a piece of sponge on a treble hook that's punched into some paste style bait.
  23. Any you guys happen to have any catfish specific boile recipes your willing to share ? I seems most of the catfishing you guys do is with those halibut pellets so was curious if you use boile's for catfish at all.
  24. Anyone here cast and shoot their own boolits ? Give me a break on the spelling apparently if you cast your own out of lead you supposed to call them boolits instead of bullets , find it kinda odd but hay,all in good fun I reckon lol. Anyhow been getting my little set up together trying to buy used to keep the price down and all.So far got a bottom pour lead pot a .312 dia mold for my 7.62x39 and 7.62x54r and two .225 molds for my .223 and 5.56. Going to try and see how powder coating works. Still waiting for some more sizing dies and a few other odds and ends to pop up on the used pages
