I've been looking for some pictures of the different colours Scoville stocks come in, can those with different coloured Scoville stocks please post the pics in this thread or PM me and I can post the pics for you.......Thanks Ian

This is a very interesting thread, and after rereading it I have a question. I read Bryan's post about sizing 6mm bullets to .22 and thought that makes sense, lead is a dead material and will not expand after being squeezed down. Then read Mr Valentines post and the last sentence made me...

Pete, 100mm ER40 collet chuck to mount on a backplate is available on Ebay http://www.ebay.com/itm/100MM-DIAMETER-ER-40-COLLET-CHUCK-3901-5036-/231958374996?hash=item3601cbea54%3Ag%3A0U0AAOSwintXSJFI While the ER40 collet blocks are available ex UK...

Then why were the rules changed?

Interesting discussion and since we only shoot LV/HV in NZ whatever you decide to do in the US won't make any difference here. The only country where I have shot a four gun was in Aussie, where the rules are different compared to the US. Sp has a weight limit of 9lb, LV is the same as LV in the...

Glad I could help Mike, I have cleared some room for messages. Helen and I will look forward to seeing you next November.

Mike some micrometer heads are threaded and have a nut to secure them in place, if you use one of these it does away with the set screw and the problem of deforming the micrometer body where it passes through the tool. I have seen a few Starret and Mitutoyo micrometer heads with this...

I made a couple of these a few years ago, using digital mics it is easy to zero the mic when measuring an existing barrel and use it to duplicate the new barrel. I've also made a couple with 0-25mm micrometer heads, just as effective but these were for uncommon actions..........Ian

Most of the calipers I use are Mitutoyo, just like my micrometers, but I have bought a couple of sets of calipers made in China, a pair of "limit" sold here in NZ and a pair of "igaging" The China made calipers are not consistant, I've tried measuring guage blocks and come up with defferent...

Hi Rob......must be Christmas :) bought it and finished it. I enjoyed the read, although the end seemed a bit abrupt - when is the next one due out? Ian

Thanks for looking Ron, someone else had the article and emailed it to me last night. Regards Ian

Ron I was really enjoying that article till I couldn't find page 42. Any chance of getting a copy of the full article? Regards Ian

This would be a great idea, a lot of younger people seem to do a lot of learning online these days and as you say a LOT of people, who could be interested in Benchrest, know nothing about the sport or that it even exists. How do you attract people to a sport that they know nothing about...

One thing I've found with a left hand Farley is they don't go as low as a right hand Farley. When you look at the R/H and L/H version the pinion to raise and lower the assy on the post is lower on the L/H version than the R/H version. This means with some of the low profile stocks the rest...

Bill yes the song is hilarious and just says it as it should be said without the PC BS. I always thought that the point of introducing laws was to solve a problem, but when the problem is created by those that are already breaking the law...........why introduce more restrictive laws that will...

G'day Bill compared to some countries Aussie does have some of the most restrictive gun control laws in the world, and the point of introducing those restrictions was to reduce gun crime, correct? Now from what I read it didn't have the effect of reducing the gun crime rate when they introduced...

Larry that is a real worry......should I pre order my pie? and will they send it to New Zealand if I can't make the Supershoot?

From the Rail Gun Prints thread: Dusty what is the differences between an average rail gun and a spectacular rail gun, and what are the deficiencies of the McCluskey rail gun design? I have seen the McCluskey prints and thought it looked very similar in design to the early Young rail gun...

WBC is not run under NBRSA rules it is run under WBSF rules, which can be downloaded here http://www.world-benchrest.com/node/1 Ian

Wayne, well put and congratulations again. My observation is that not ALL countries work as a team, but Australia seem to be working as a team more successfully than other countries. Some of the things I observed showed that some countries are picking up on this, ie sharing information about...
