Karma lol. U.

He touches on the fact that smokeless needs some pressure to illustrate. The pyrodex he used does not and so illustrated it well. I bet any of the fast pwders like bullseye would give the desired results. WMR would be easier not needing a heeled bullet and the choices are enormous.

Lol.

Congratulations and hello DT :-) U. -
Phil, there are cheaper options out there and for my money a break barrel is some fun and easy to use, light too. A shot can be pulled just the same on a recoiless system! U.

Nice area.

Oh how I would like to reload WMR!

Loads of folk have had success with bullets heavier than 45grn in hornet Graham. They are standard weight bullets for 1:14! Surprised you don't know that:-(. If you have 1:16" only then you will struggle. Open your mind and free your spirit to the endless possibilities that may exist. Regarding 243 and 105grn bullets, often they need pushing hard to stabilise. If alot of reloaders play very safe and velocity is down a touch they may struggle. Stabilisation is not only a function of RPM, it is related to a range of velocities too. U.

With a 1:14" twist it should shoot up to 55grn easily. Mine did anyway. You sounded surprised saying it even shot 45grn extremely well! My BSA was 1:16" and struggled with bullets heavier than 45grn. As did the CZ. Of the three hornet's to pass through my hands, finding a load to go sub 1" was not hard at all. Powders I used was; H110, A2400, H4227, BLC2, Blue dot. Bullets used were. Speer 40 spire points, Speer 50 TNT, 52 HP 52HPBT match. Nosler BT in 40&50grn. Sierra 40grn Hornet. S&B 45 full patch. The BSA was a nice well made rifle with a good bore,

Depends how much you get per rabbit.

If I think what you mean just shim it as I did. Mine had a high spot between the front and rear screws. The shims allowed the action to clear it, no whittling needed at all :-).

Chiffchaff, or willow warbler...maybe not. U.

That's the beauty of it si, you have to keep popping out :-) U.

All I did with mine is cut a plastic bottle up to make pads the fore and aft receiver bolts pass through. It lifted my barrel out the stock just enough but wow what a transformation, shoots any ammo now! Bedding, I love crisp white sheets and proper feather down pillows, hmmm, zzzzzz

All I do mate is breast the birds. Get the food processor with the knife thingie fitted. Put a round of bread in and half an onion. Wiss it up. Then add the pigeon breasts, loads of black pepper. Sometimes I add streaky bacon too! Wiss it up until it's a paste and put it in a little oven proof dish. Press it well to loose the voids. Add a little olive oil on top and pop in oven. I cook until no juices and a skewer is to hot to the touch. Let it cool and place on a saucer. Good with sausage meals and gravies or sliced cold. The same thing can make burgers for shallow frying!

I have thought that many times myself, I have a circa 1000ft lb gap between my WMR and .223 and you would think the likes of a Hornet may be useful. Just the same, even though it's my business, and I get called for all manor of work, PERSONALLY I have never found the need! I understand that. I have had all sorts and reloaded for them all. Now I just have a WMR and an LR and I don't feel undergunned. In fact I feel quite liberated! The WMR even despatched a fallow doe I found with a broken leg! Do I miss any of my centerfire rifles? Not really but if there is ever a temptati

Thanks fellers. Yes Dan, lots of fox around there. Get them done ;-). U.

Lol. The whole plantation is cov re ed with them, they held the tree guards to a wooden stake. Handy they are!. U.

Really, do you know any more about them? Thanks. U.

Meat loaf that is. I do like sliced woodie meatloaf on my sandwich at work. Bread crumbs, onion, four pigeon breasts, black pepper. Grind it all up in a food processor and bake for about forty mins in a small dish. U :-)

Near market Drayton bud. U.

Snapped these two this morning first light. And this yesterday, I fiddled with it a little. U.

It is underestimated. I avoid them from April to October. They can taste odd but winter they are nice. Skinning cold is a pain, carry some bags and skin them warm, much easier. U.
