  1. 4895 was a wonderful powder indeed. Sea temp here varies between 8c and 6c all year, a big body of water rarely varies, I use a floatation suit when out, puts my survial rate up from 15 mins to 2 hours if I end up overboard, canny swim so is a bonus too ?
  2. I'm pretty sure it's bloody cold, I've not seen any icebergs, and I've seen air temp as low as - 25c here, but then again I'm not the lookout on the titanic......... Am I? ?
  3. We never get snow, although it has snowed lots, living 200 yards off the Atlantic, it never settles. Even @-12c last week, just too much salt, animal water butt's were 4" thick of ice though, couldn't make it up ?
  4. Thats called cyclonic ??? I want to know more about your target camera set up, I really need something as my old peepers ain't too good out to 300+ yards ?
  5. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BALL-LEAD-SINKER-MOULD-FISHING-WEIGHT-MOULDS-/291939006981?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49292
  6. Only the t-bolts have nice shiney gold triggers, I looked at the stainless, x-bolt but was heavy so got the ab3 synthetic stock, replaced the sear spring and the trigger is a lot lighter but still plastic, wish I'd gone for the x-bolt now, was only £300 more. I do like browning barrels, made in Japan but accuracy I've never seen the like of. Edits, I only have it in 308win though. No use here for a 223 The ab3 states 4 shot, but my mag holds 5 an one up the spout so it's a 6 shot ?
  7. The wife would bloody castrate me if I even thought about it ? ???
  8. Don't grow up guys, it's a trap ?
  9. I just got a James Martin one for £20 a few years ago. Get the rolls not bags, a lot cheaper, just seal the bottom cut what length you need and Robert's your mother's brother ?
  10. Snap ? I just save a couple whenever we get a chinky.
  11. I freeze in them little oblong plastic takeaway containers, pop them out when frozen then vac pack, saves having loads of containers and your reusing the few you keep. Thats just the way I've done it for years and its easy.
  12. 53 this year ? I'm catching you all up ?
  13. Mate has two tikka in 22mag and 223, have to admit they are good bloody rifles ??
  14. I just noticed the kids yellow fever and rabies vaccines behind it ?
  15. I actually fancy a vodka and a Stella ????
  16. Best thing to do is go in and have a feel, see what feels right for yourself. Some rifles just feel right and you'll make it work! Then buy the tikka ?
  17. The t-bolt comes out top in that! It's all personal preferance, I really can't fault mine, accuracy is what counts at the end of the day, both the lr and hmr t-bolts I have have excellent accuracy. Did I ever mention shiney gold trigger ?
  18. The only trigger I didn't like on a Browning was the ABIII, I got a new sear spring from a bloke in oz, postage was more than the bloody spring, but that sorted it, so it was nice and crisp. I'm happy with the T-bolts (I still try turning the bolts though ?), proves its just each to they're own. I have had far worse ? did I mention the time ............. ?
  19. You've done well there with slippery dicks pal. Looks just fine to me. ?
  20. I shifted from PPU and went full yank on a lot of my new brass to starline, all good so far but not got any past annealing yet, so its just a time game!
  21. Mmmm I likes my trigger as its shiney gold, not tried wanking with it yet ? preciousies shouldn't give me ideas. I have two, one in lr and one hmr how can I fits this in.... Your's most in patient ?
  22. We don't have wild ones here, I bet they're a bugger catching to milk ?
  23. We don't keep Billy's, once was enough, they do stink an they piss all over themselves aye ? wedders are fine, castrate em at 8week. Those are last years kids, mother a Toggenburg an father was a guernsey, not a bad offspring.
