Thanks chaps, but what is 'lash'? Never heard of that one. Cheers Richard

Hi All, It appears to me that Minox is bigger in the US than in the UK. Those of you that have purchased the bino's or scopes do you find them ok? I have compared the binos side by side with Swarovski at last light and there isnt much difference. Any experience? Thanks Richard

Many thanks, i am building a pictutre here. Cheers Richard

Many thanks thats great. Cheers Richard

Thanks for the reply Shortmag, i have looked at the site but it only lists Sierra and not Nosler. Cheers Richard

Yep Leupold QD mounts did the job, i also used some loctite on the bases, no problems since. Cheers Richard

As above, i have a Browning XBOLT 30-06, 22'' barrel 1 in 10 twist, currently i use a Sierra game king 165 grain with IMR4350 57 grains and i great some great groups. I am reloading some fire formed Federal brass and CCI Large rifle primers. I am hoping to come over to MT later this year...

This thread has been so helpful to me, and an eye opener, included many things i had never even thought about but are so important. So thanks again, just hope we get our tag now. Cheers Richard

Welcome Nige, from an existing UK member, i live in Devon UK and will be applying for a nonresident tag next year to hunt in Montana. Cheers Richard

Now this post has really interested me. I do plan on coming over to Montana sometime in the near future. Last year i bought a 30-06 for the wild boar we have over here, but i have had, and still am having issues with it, although i'm sure i will get to the bottom of it in the end. So i assumed...

Thanks for that, someone over here in the UK also recommended the Leupold rings so i might go down that road. Cheers Richard

Really? That interests me, if i ever get over for an Elk hunt i was told i had to bring my 30-06, but i have loads more confidence in my .243 My favourite rifle is my Sako .243 I use a Speer 100grain with 40.4 grains of reloader 19. Works a treat and i have taken everything from rabbits to big...

Hi All, I have noticed that the warne mounts fitted to my rifle don't seem to be doing the job they are supposed to. I have had problems zeroing my 30-06 fitted with a S&B 8x56 30mm. First batch of ammo was a disaster, so back to the shop, they checked everything and i bought some Federal ammo...

How about this for a large stag, mind you its in the UK where i live, no snakes that will do you any harm and half the flight time! Cheers Richard

I have settled on a 57grain load and it is working fine, not sure about velocity as i don't own a chrono. Cheers Richard
