Kevin, Now don't get carried away - just because you've got an unlimited supply of brass!! Cheers Vince

Stephen, Barnards are very popular in the UK. Start off with the Barnard S action rather than the P. The S is Remmy profile so lighter but it is still a very stiff action. Still three-lug and can be had in right/left bolt/port configuration. You can reduce cocking force by shortening the...

Jim, I'm running mollied 115 DTACs at 3200fps with Reloader 22 for 1000 yard benchrest. Barrel is a 29 inch Bartlein. Cheers Vince (UK)

Surely it would be worth an e-mail to info@gruenel.ch or visit their website at www.gruenel.ch Vince (UK)

Andrew, Kkuperman is dead right. I use a SEB and the front counter-balance weight has transformed it. I'm using a weight made from a six-inch length of old barrel to balance my 17lb Light Gun. Back off the tension adjustment and the rest becomes as smooth as silk but supports the rifle...

Shooter 65, Gator is about spot on. I was running the DTACs at 3250fps and I had 21 MOA from 100 to 1000 yds. My 243 AI will just make 3200fps with the (mollied) DTACs and Reloader 22. Still searching for the accuracy load! Cheers Vince (UK)

Mr Logic, The 308 Savage F/TR rifle is a competitive out of the box rifle for reasonable money. If you contact Stuart Anselm of www.ospreyrifles.com he might still have one at the old price. The F/TR class has really taken off in the UK and whereas a tactical rifle would have been a reasonable...

It is a great 1000 yd BR round. I had my first one just after Bill Shehane broke the world record with his. Back then, there was only Winchester brass, now we have Lapua brass and the 6mm DTAC bullets. My latest one is a 6-284 'short' - by 50 thou. Built on a BAT M. The barrel didn't look too...

Fantastic round! I loved mine - all 490 rounds of it! Great at 600 to 1000 yards. Cheers Vince (UK)

Hi Rick, As you are probably aware, the first 6.5x47 Lapua cases had a large primer. This was soon replaced by the small primer. I asked Lapua why - 'the small primer gave better accuracy' - was the reply. Cheers Vince (UK)

jGee, At $130 it's too good to miss! Cheers Vince (UK)

If you don't mind kneeling on the floor to look through your barrel, you don't need an angled eye-piece. Cheers Vince (UK)

Gene, Gene well done in doing something different and well done to those who were bold enough to approve it. Seb - we now need to get the WBSF to approve it. Cheers Vince (UK)

Hi Chillippr, I use a 1 in 8.5 twist and the 108 grain Lapua Scenar bullet. Vince (UK)

I'm shooting 80 grain Sierras - moly-coated out of a 1 in 9 twist barrel. Cheers Vince

I've used H4350 in my 22 Dasher and 22-6.5x47. Fantastic in the Dasher and very good in the 22-6.5x47. Cheers Vince (UK)

Hi Kevin, Nothing too exciting - Andy Bird wants a new barrel on his Dave Tooley built Nesika - which is currently chambered in 7mmBooBoo. He's going for a 6.5x47 for 600 yd BR - which is now going well at Diggle. 'Bout time you got back and did some shooting - having said that, it's freezing...

Hi Chad, Thank you for taking the trouble to give such a detailed and comprehensive reply - and all the way from Iraq at that! I hope your final few weeks pass quickly and you have a safe journey home. Incidentally - have you seen the e-mail from 'K battenbough' on this thread? Kevin is a...

Great info. as always guys. Many thanks Vince (UK)

Hi Guys, I'm looking for a bolt for a Nesika L action. I believe Nesika has changed hands a time or two - where would I go for a bolt? Thanks Vince (UK)
