Cheers mate! It wouldn't have been without your donation! I've always wanted something in this style, I'm pretty happy all the right pieces came along.

I too have a soft spot for the 6mm Rem, enjoy it!

I like my visits to Allan, always a good yarn.. where in the manawatu are you shooting if you dont mind me asking?

This seems to be the biggest hinderance for the chambering.

I bought a couple of boxes of PPU from Ammo Direct in wanganui so I can use it to zero and chrony for comparison before I reload it. Due to shortages I'm using win760 and 100gr hornady btsp, which should be plenty good enough for my needs.
I had planned to buy some norma 7x57 brass and reform it, but couldn't get any. I think the PPU brass will be all good.

Here and there, mostly northern Manawatu scratching round the bush. Up on the tops when I get a chance and the weather is ok!
