    The good old days.....record the cartridges were. Same propellant but a plastic wad. I liked them, especially the price.

    It is quite strong. Proper bores of .729" but super tight full and full at .683"&.685"!

    Unfortunately my local post office is a gunshop run by an ex champ shooter Duncan Lawton. I get my hands on all sorts of goodies ?

    Thanks Ben but no way to date the blooming thing. It could go way way back to the Russian Revolution!

    Got your again! Got treatment for it yesterday. Anyway, I've not been able to do what I wanted while off work for a few day but sit in various locations in a farm yard shooting crows. Far to rough for my best gun so I've been using my singles. This however has cost me some birds so I went and got a USSR made T0-66 sxs 12g hammer gun. It shoots where I look so that's good. It should make a good decoying gun but I would like to know more about them and how to date them. Any ideas? SD.

    I'm getting confused now Dave. A head space gauge is not just for trimming cases or determine if the brass is to long. A head space is the tiny amount of gap between the a chambered round and the closed bolt face. To set a barrel in the receiver you need industry standard gauges for the cartridge used or at least a cartridge sized to industry specs....hence the gauge you want Dave. The reason it is not just a trim die/guage is because it's a bottle neck case. It's not only the case overall length that has to be correct but also the shoulder position of the case. I imagine i

    Heck I don't know what that is! Is it to check case shoulder length etc ?

    Mine was called 'spot'. "Pissquick" my keeper mate called him. As time went by I called him " little ba####d". I grew to hate spot! Two years I had him until he drowned himself on a frozen lake one February. He was completely uncontrollable. An egg thief and escape artist! I had to electric fence the garden to keep him in. He would eat a whole rabbit if he got hold of one and then do an impression of a black and white football for the rest of the day struggling to breathe! I use get hold of the muscle ball and contemplate silencing him forever often such would be my rage often w

    You can get the basic principle from this video.

    Dave, if you can't access one there is another way if you want to rule out or deduce an issue with head spacing.

    Not neccasary. Some materials self lubricate. With regards to carbide dies, the polished carbide grain structure is so dense it doesn't pick up brass enough to damage it without lubricant.
  12. Sausagedog
    Yeah, it's for pussies ?
  13. Sausagedog
    I don't need any more useless information thanks, my head has plenty already!
  14. Sausagedog
    Sorry yes. I was being lazy ? It could be something really stupid like a fuse!
  15. Sausagedog
    Is there a weight label on it? 50k can be a lot for a small winch!

    It could have a limit switch stuck mate. You might have to lift the cover off and find the limit switch gear. Or wind it back a bit manually. It might work then.

    Electric hoist hook lowers but will not raise. Possible Cause: (i) Hoist has been loaded with excessive load. (ii) Open hoisting circuit or shorted winding in reversing contactor coil. (iii) Control station contacts not working properly. (iv) Upper limit switch contacts open. (v) Phase failure (three phase unit only). Possible Solution: (i) Check electrical continuity and repair or replace defective part. (ii) Consult operating manual for specific instructions related to product.

    I ain't no expert but what I do know I will share. Co2 is low pressure propellant and any gain in power is gained by not only more gas but barrel length. With out barrel length the liquid can not turn to gas enough in order to keep accelerating the pellet. Your short barrel is not going to benefit from more gas supplied really.

    I remove the scent glands when I dress them.

    Dunner bother mate, the wind is increasing, might go set up for the crows for a couple hours. Thanks though, so kind....

    Fox was my plan too. Found a fresh pheasant kill Wednesday night. Same place every spring. I was going get up first light Friday and today but gout returned Thursday night! Maybe tomorrow. Last night I had to go and park the car near the maize clamp and wait for a crow just so I could do something. I fell asleep in the car due to no sleep from the gout and awoke to birds all over the maize! Oh and I took a I guess 140yd shot at a woody with the wmr and got feathers only so the hmr definitely won this match ?

    Only teasing mate. That's a fair distance. I have no experience with one so am not really qualified to make any kind of comment. How do the 20g rounds fair....that's what I would probably look to but I don't know really?
  23. Sausagedog
    Real men don't need sticks. I bought some the other day. They don't seem to bad so far. I must be getting old. No way would I entertain them a few years ago! Good work BC?
  24. Sausagedog
    You watch that tiny bullet doesn't bounce back off them rabbits at that distance! Cracking photos mate?
  25. Sausagedog
    No not with carbide dies but I think they only do carbide dies for straight cases. Don't think tapered cases benefit from having carbide present. A tapered or bottle necked cartridge needs lube to stop it getting taper locked when full length sizing. Even straight looking bottle neck cases have some taper. You may get tungsten or carbide neck enlargers fitted to the de capper, they probably don't need lubricant. I never had one, just steel ones so I needed to lube the inside of the neck too.
