Yep, you’re bang on RL26 will get you an extra 50 - 150 fps in many calibres. That’s been my experience with 284, 7SAUM & 7RM. The Hornady marketing hype is all focused on their new PRC cartridges……...

I have had all sorts of problems with Limbsavers. If any cleaning solvents get on them they will go all mushy and sticky. If you do fit a Limbsaver I suggest you store the rifle barrel down

I am in Napier and fit many recoil pads each year. I always use Pachmayr pads which I can supply. The small size almost fit perfectly and look really classy. PM me if interested and I can help you.

Easiest way to remove glued on butt pads is to carefully cut them off with a table saw or band saw, cutting through the black stuff after removing any screws. Then finish the end of the butt off on a...

The lack of full power factory ammo was the major factor. I spent a lot of time considering the .243. In the end I was convinced by Nathan Foster's observations that there are no prizes for...
