No Problem Chas Different strokes for different folks n all .:):) happy huntingun) Murph

I couldn't agree more it must be nice to get paid to hunt, but we didnt get paid. basically we had to pay the estate to allow us to shoot on their land at their deer. Deer have to be culled here in the UK as nearly all of their natural predators have been wiped out, we dont have wolves or...

Hmmm Where do I start. Roebucks rig is as at the start of the post. He is shooting 140 amax's and Im not 100% sure how fast he is running them. My rig is a howa 1500 in 7mm wsm with a 25" 1 in 8" twist Border barrel fitted with a 5.5 X 22 NXS and a pes t12 Moderator. Im shooting 162 amax's at...

Ok guys here is another picture from the day. I am trying to keep this all PC with folks this side of the pond. The fat ugly fecker in ths pic is my fat self. the others enjoying the free ride downhill are about 40% of the days cull. shot by 3 shooters. all in all a great day on the hill, the...

Where are the rest of the pictures Bud?? I especially like the one of me breathing thru my arse, another good day on the hill. to have an even better one I better get me some gym time and less time with plates of food in front of me Murph

Thanks AJ thats more like the numbers I was looking for. I was trying to get a powder that gave me 3000fps with the 162 amax's and 2900 with the 175 smk's with 100% burn. I have plenty h4831sc and that figures kinda well looking at the data from quickload, I wil start 1 grain below the...

Ok Here We go I asked for the quickload data , Not all and sundry's feelings about who should and should not give me the relevant info. lets not get our knickers in a twist. at the end of the day Its down to me whether I use the info given from quickload or reloaders nest, my reloading...

Finally got the riflle back. Its looking good. 25" border barrel, shilen 5 1/2 profile 1 in 8" twist winchester brass and cci lrm primers Measured the max oal with 175 smk's it is 3.090, so I will be starting there and going shorter in 5 thou increments, to try and find a sweet spot, I dont...

Thanks AJ I guess I will wait untill I get the rifle back from the smith, I will post the coal when I can measure the max seating depth with both bullets. I have been using h4831sc with Amax's but using my old coal means diddly squat. Patience is a virtue I have little of. I was just trying...

I can feel a world of pain coming for the deer we have acess to bud !! Spoke to Jock today He is bedding my rifle just now and it will be up and running next week. Remember 397 is toffee now LOL See ya Bud Murph

Can anyone please run some numbers on quickload to give me a start point for a load. My rifle is due back from the gunsmith with a new barrel. not sure what my coal will be as I have'nt had a chance to measure the chamber yet. It is a 7mm WSM 25" barrel with 1 IN 8" TWIST, I will be using...

Nice Buck there Pete. From where I see it. you probably shot him down near the big stone sheep pen at the bottom of the clear fell. I hated an east wind there it seems to swirl all round the place, and spoils your otherwise well planned and executed sneaking. all the best Murph

I want to get a rifle built in the states.The only problem is that I live in the UK how do I get the rifle exported to the uk? ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED thanks MURPH
