Re: Savage F class stock

Will be interesting to see how that stock go's Stinkitup.
I am still waiting for my Savage LRP in .260 Remington to get here, as it will be used for occasional F Open and mainly "Varminting" up here, I am thinking of restocking it from the HS Precision that it comes in.

Re: Lapua Brass shortage?

Give SARA a go, I usually find that they have what I want at a reasonable price.

Re: ADI Benchmark 8208

I also like the 2206H in 4kg tubs, I tend to burn a fair bit of it for Full Bore Target rifle shooting.

8208 looks good for the .222 Remington too, however there isnt any that I have seen in Darwin as yet.

Re: Who can fit ejectors to a Panda bolt

Or you could try Rod Sheehan in WA.

He was one of the blokes that designed and built the CG Inch action.

Believe he nows goes under South Cape Rifles.

Re: 300 Winchester Magnum

Mate, what type of projectile are you after? If you are liscenced for the rifle, then you are able to have the projectiles etc in your home. Not sure on legalities for 1 projectile as you can BUY the keyrings already made from some shops, I am assuming once the case has two small joles drilled into ...

Re: Lightweight hunting binoculars

I have a pair of Vortex Viper 10x 32 bino's, for the price they are very clear and bright optically.
I can honestly recomend them as a good bush set.

Hope this is of assistance to you,
