The "pro version" does not have a threading dial, even though the sales brochure shows it, the sales rep I contacted confirmed that it didn't. This means you would need to keep the 1/2 nuts engaged from start to finish when threading metric or imperial. I have the same machine you have linked...

I see many light duty stands for so called benchtop lathes, many are made of sheet metal some bigger lathes have solid cast base plinths, one for the headstock and one for the tailstock end, and others are on a monolithic base. A machinery seller once told me a lathe he once bought could take...

Greg looks good, did you make that............you must have some hidden talents.........can we put in an order for North Island Champs, might need more than one for all the shooters

Ryan, thank you and a Merry Christmas to you and all your family and all the best for 2018. Ian

I agree with those that say it is a "system" and that some rifles shoot better than others. Several years ago I had a rifle built and that rifle shot pretty good it even managed top 20 at the SS, but when I squeezed the forend and barrel together it seemed to be quite flexible. Two years after...

Thanks Fegus, I've added that photo and also a few from Graeme Smith......Thanks Graeme. Some of Graeme's photo's include a few that the shooters didn't see

"Worlds Best" does that mean I can't come :rolleyes:;) I'm looking forward to being there in 2019, along with a few other Kiwis. Ian

Yes at the delegates meeting there was a vote and the 2019 WBC will be held in Canada. No one was present from Italy at WBC. http://www.world-benchrest.com/documents/manual.pdf The landslide on the Dobbiaco range was posted on facebook a couple of weeks prior to WBC.
