    Steelisreal liked post by Mathias On thread : Carbon fibre stock options for Howa Mini Action
    Ken just emailed back to me and said it could be possible to fit the Sako A1 type action into the new design stock, but it's still at least 3 months away from starting. Sent from my SM-A530F using...

    I got the action all trued up, barrel threaded both ends and chambered. I polished a few rough edges on the bolt/bolt channel and burnished in some molly powder which made it very slick. 128619...

    Ok so the Zastava pushed inline. I have made a start on the M85 instead of the Sako as my weekend penciled in for workshop and load development time was sidetracked by a sick wife and kids. They...

    I managed to get to the range today to test some new reloads for my Bergara .357 magnum. I've had a bit of reloading experience, but up until recently I've just followed common recipes. However,...

    It was the wife's turn this evening. We'd worked out a gully where quick escape for the goaty menace was very hard. I spotted and called range, she dealt out the 6mm death. No action photos...
