oldpup223 if you are going to run a 3ph 5hp motor from single phase find out what the VFD manufacturer recommends, most VFD manufacturers only make single phase input VFD's up to 3hp, any bigger than that and they are usually 3 phase input.. I'm using a 10hp Hitachi WJ200 VFD to power a 5hp...

The pumpkin is one of the best neck turners I've used, very easy to adjust, repeatable and easy to hold. Like someone said the easiest neck turner is getting someone else to turn them...........only problem with that is that when you have less than 5 shots into 0.074" your condition goes away...

Rob I really liked the book......first fiction book I've read in 25+ years........when is the next one being published?

Well if anyone is planning a trip overseas with a firearm or knows someone traveling to NZ with a firearm I would not recommend travelling with Air New Zealand. The reason is they have introduced a charge for travelling with firearms From NZ to Aussie it is NZ$120 plus a return charge AU$120...

If I remember correctly the Borden 6mm PPC reamer specs were published in Precision shooting years ago, along with the reason Jim dimensioned it the way he did........funny how someone's post can trigger the memory sometimes...........Ian

Since I don't live in the US I have often wondered why these shootings happen, is it the media attention given to these senseless crimes or ??? Laws are only there for the law abiding to follow, criminals or people with criminal intention never will follow the existing law and certainly won't...

Asa the 5mm Rem Mag may be readily available in the US but here in NZ I've heard of it, but never seen any of the Aguila in captivity..........still have 1 box (green box) of Remington left.......Ian

What I wouldn't give for a few boxes of the 5mm Rem Mag ammo..........and a L/H 591:D........Kiwi

For International shipping USPS and those flat rate boxes are absolutely fantastic...........just seems a lot of companies don't/won't use them for International shipping. Best service I ever got was when Bald Eagle sent me a rear bag ordered on Monday (US time) recieved in NZ on Thursday (which...

Joe pm sent .. How many is a hoarde of orders, I would take two maybe more ...Ian

Defiantly an interesting rule, but if so many are attaining the highest score possible how long will it be before the first 10 or so top places are setting world records. Then who would be the record holder? Would it be the tenth place getter who fired his last record breaking shot after...

Al your post is very informative, I assume the "lead-line-sweet-spot" varies for each die and it's a matter of finding that spot. If you had two dies that are the same caliber and ogive would that sweet spot be the same for each die or would it be different for each die?..........Ian

Wilbur thanks I was able to find the very useful information that was buried in this thread........post 61 became post 11........Ian

I whole heartedly agree with the above........doesn't seem to matter where in the world you are some Benchrest shooters just don't help at all when it comes to running a match.........Ian
