Re: Replaceing Glow plugs all or just the crook ones/ best brand

Re: Bulk Order of Taipans SN 40g, 45g and/or 50g.

Order info in; $339 total inc GST, with delivery to my address. Edit to add: for 1 box of 2000 'second quality' .224 50gr HP's.

Re: Bulk Order of Taipans SN 40g, 45g and/or 50g.

G'day Seddo, I still have some stocks of a few larger calibre Taipans, from .277 116gr HP through .308 150gr to .375 300 & 350gr RNSN and .429 200 & 240gr JHP. Always found them to be excellent for accuracy, at least by minute-of-animal standards - I ain't a regular paper puncher. Taipan jac...
