Please don’t be offended by our dislike of the EU . For my part it is not aimed at the member states or it’s wonderful people, but I direct my disdain towards the overpaid bureaucrats in Brussels who made so many crazy laws and rules . There was a time when to buy British meant that it was the best in the world, those days are gone . I shoot Finnish rifles with German and Hungarian glass , American bullets , but if I could buy British that was as good I think I would . I am against a Federal Europe and would like to see all the countries of Europe free from Brussels and able to trade and be friends but as our own sovereign states . 3 Quote Link to post

KimE 487 Posted July 21, 2021 Report Share Posted July 21, 2021 I dont like the EU federal movement(Macron-Merkel) we needed UK to push against the Eurozone countries. France did have a leadership in small arms technologi from the 1870 going their own way even then other designs were available for them, until now then they adopted a german musketoon(and so did UK). 1 Quote Link to post

Alsone 789 Posted July 21, 2021 Report Share Posted July 21, 2021 I was offered some land with a wall called the Maginot Line on it. Impervious wall. One previous owner, never used. Apparently the French forgot to extend it into the low countries and the Germans just drove around. May I direct our French cousins to their closely related Italian cousins and specifically tell them to as for someone called Hadrian in Rome. Apparently he knows how to build walls which don't have ends. May I also advise he doesn't mention this when in Scotland. Quote Link to post

On the nosler loading data it says to seat to 2.510" so that is where i start. I then seat either side and see which way is improving. I won't bother with doing it with this load though as it is good enough where it is. What i can tell you though is that Mike Norris of Brock and Norris told me the bigger the jump the bullet has to the lands the more accurate it is at range. I have just looked on the barnes load data and it also recommends RL15 as a powder for its 58grn varminators. Seat to 2.540" , 41.1grns bottom load for 3,501fps up to 45.7grns for 3844fps. I can confirm this, I backed further off the lands with my 6.5 and the groups tightened up considerably 1 Quote Link to post
