    MD, H4831 or AR2213 either original or SC are not the same as DuPont IMR4831. IMR 4831 is slightly quicker in burn rate.

    Have a look through one. Clarity will be greatly improved. Better Eyebox also. Will be chalk and cheese. I rate the 4-14x40 as a average scope. HD5 is a big step up.

    I lent Dave my rifle in .17 Rem to use in this project to get the magazine dimensions right. The feedback on his long t3 .223 mags is pretty good.

    You will get everything you need at Bunnings. Drill, tap bolt, washers. Brass is soft so a shifter is ok to work the tap. Put the bolt through the washers and a socket to pull the case.

    I normally use the "pre ai" factory cartridge load with a cup and core at paper, but you will find guys using small amounts of shotgun powder with wads of various material, cream of wheat etc.
