    Just a quicky wind drift is always 10 mph on charts so for instance 223 40 grn vmax at 200 yards moves an inch with 10mph will it be two inches with 20 mph and so on?

    Same here glad its not just me my springer bitch was like that I was really worried but she is slowly starting to listen now at 9 months but still having off days where she will not listen so I have taken the advice I was given off here and have put her on a long lead untill recall is 100 percent, because I cant move on with the retrieving untill then

    Are they still on the general licence mon? Has it changed yet there were supposed to be a few alterations this time? I used to love shooting geese with my hmr through the head on a windless evening lol On a different note just had a call to say all the silage has been cut so cant wait to finish work! Went out yesterday with the 22 and shot a few woodies on clover which was good fun I have never decoyed pigeons with the 22, love the 22lr

    Sorry for the re post, why is that? To much wax on them? Have tried rws aswell but the hollow points were full of wax on some and not on others and they weren't that accurate even though they were the most expensive, sorry to hijack your post Elliott mate, you're groups were very good for that range not sure why they moved ??

    Impressive groups, Winchester subs used to be like that but since they have changed the packaging the groups have got bigger and they don't seem to expand as well as they used to?

    Ok peeps fair point, im definitely interested and I love shooting with homeloads especially foxes! Its a gay cliché but it really is like catching a trout on a fly I've made, anyhoo when the midland game fair comes around I'll pick a few things up and try again, struggling to get powder at the minute and 40 grain vmax tips, atb

    Hi all just after a bit of advice really I'm still struggling with recall with my 9 month old springer, I know there will be people that will say this should be sorted by now but this is my first gundog and all I have had is a few lessons and watched the david lisset dvd s who makes it lookeasy anyhow this is the problem: Find in the garden comes back on the whistle, fine out off the lead when working the cover, she stops On the whistle and comes back on the whistle, but in a field when I am trying basics sit stay recall etc if she sees a crow or pigeon flying low she will chase it and igno

    Using remington cases 7 1/2 remington primers and 25 grains of viht 133 with an oal of 2.230, 27.8 grains of acc 2460 was what I was using before which was apparently 3800 fps
  22. slipper
    Ok thanks for that
  23. slipper
    These are 40 grain v max mate just the figures I got out of the hornady reloading manual to be honest with the bullet size and powder weight

    So the lee factory crimp die goes in a bench mounted press cc? Also which scales would you recommend? I bought the cheap lee balance scales but tbh I'm not that confident in them? Is it worth spending money on a decent set that hold powder in a tube and then trickle the powder out? The ones where you just type in the amount of grains on a keypad?
  25. slipper
    Why is it flatter than a 100 yard mate? I, m just looking for any info and tips aswell regarding the 223 atb
