    Yer might start to reload once I get a .308, depends on the cost and frequency of the mosin nagant! Just using rich's .308 Parker hale and the ruger 10/22, not too fond of the ruger though as the trigger is extremely heavy. Thinking a 455 with a trigger job will suit me nicely What do you shoot mostly?

    Lmfao! Yer absolute legend! I usually manage to get down there once a fortnight but been way to busy lately! Although I'll have to work overtime to afford all these rifles I've put in for! Lol Give me a nudge next time you're down mate!
  3. Mitchell Thompsett
    Haha ah tidy! I'll have a look Yer I'm a member of Severnside range have been since 2012 If you see me down there I'm the fat boy in the silver saab- used to have a little fiat 500 but rich will point me out if you mention that! Lmao I exaggerate about SGC but yer it's almost like they won't accommodate me until I have the FAC and cash on the table!

    Straight pull SVT? Haven't done THAT much homework mate! Lol what's that? I've had a little play with the 455 thin hole and it feels great. Although the guys at sportsmans Newport are dickheads so can't have a proper go really! Is it too much to expect a few dry fires on a bench or an actual shoot of the rifle? Not too sure how it all works and the boundaries! Lol Cheers, Mitch

    Yes I was looking at the mosin Nagant as they do bulk mil surp Ammo which makes it much cheaper to shoot than .308?

    Anyone used the browning T-bolt? I tried it in sportsmans but didn't really feel that nice? I'd imagine the action would smoother up with use though?
  7. Mitchell Thompsett
    Yer cheers mate. Looking at bolt action only as you say. Managed to get 800 rounds on the 7.62, 600 rounds on the .22 and .17 and 250 on the .223. He even asked if I wanted any more on the .223 but I declined as don't think of use that much due to the cost! Will increase the .22 to 1000 though al I'll shoot 600 a month probs due to target once or twice a week! Looking at the thumb hole CZ's but not sure of the difference between 452, 455, stainless etc etc! Possibly weatherby vanguard for .223 and a mosin Nagant for 7.62. Does anyone know any other rifles that come chambered in 7.62x54?

    Well folks, The FEO from Gwent police named Mr Rowland came to visit today! Just like to sing his praises as he's a very nice guy who was not only professional but able to have a laugh as well! And also does a lot of shooting himself so is very knowledgeable! Interview went well and safe approved! All guns I wanted were accepted, though some for target only, however we agreed on everything, and I am now much more informed on everything from closed tickets to the storage of guns in transport! Now to wait for the land to be passed and hopefully my ticket should arrive in the next f

  22. Mitchell Thompsett
    Ah sorted! Just heard of guys saying yer I've got a £200 trigger job in mine, thought they were all that price! Yer will have a look at those video! Cheers, Mitch

    Wow! How much are the federal factory rounds Charlie caller? How much does it cost to reload as well? Per shot that is.Cheers, Mitch I have not bought any factory loads for a while mate, but 20 ish quid for twenty, I recon I can reload .243 for about 35 pence per bang, so .223 will be a little cheaper, say 30 pence, you will not go wrong with a Weatherby/Howa mate, best value rifles in the country. I too have a Weatherby in 243 and agree it is very accurate , but i did modify the trigger as i found it a bit heavy . I also fitted a PES sound mod , harris bi pod , a schimitt and bender 8
  24. Mitchell Thompsett
    Yer I've been looking at the monarch III as they are half price on sportsmans I think! Useful advice in the steyr mate! Defo going for the weatherby now! Quite glad actually cause now I can spend more money on a nicer scope like the Nikon or zeiss! Cheers guys
  25. Mitchell Thompsett
    Ah wicked. That's a bit more affordable than I thought! Ah right thanks for the advice mate, sounds like I'd be better off going for the weatherby and upgrading the scope for the zeiss!
