   You're welcome to make contact and pending a chat and cup of coffee, borrow a winter grade tent (two options here). PM me you number.

   Here's my CZ457 - the plastic stock is a surprisingly good shape, made way better with the adjustable cheek riser I pinched off a Tikka, it fits very nicely. The stock is a bit "soft" but the...

   Nice shooting. My "pencil barrel" sporter weight CZ 457 put 9 rounds of Eley Team into 0.65 at 100M the other day, that gave me the Willie's for a week or so, but eventually I got brave enough to try...

   The Tanekaha suggestion is interesting, it's a very nice tough timber, definitely less brittle than Macrocarpa. My yacht is Tanekaha below the waterline, Macrocarpa above. From nudging various...

   Make sure you run the 308 with a supressor, and wear good earmuffs when range shooting and it's a pussycat to shoot .. . .

   Two things to consider are your barrel twist, and the action. The one I had was a very slow twist (1:12 or 1:14 - I don't recall) in a Lee Enfield action so rear locking. If it was a 1:10 twist in...

   Good advice right there. The "goto" load that usually works for me in 308 is 46gn of 2206h behind a 150 - 165gn bullet, it'll often shoot sub 0.5 moa without any further faffing. It's a John...

    I've got a similar Ruger (mine is an all stainless heavy barrel in a laminated stock) and it's a very smooth cycling, accurate 22 right out of the box. When I got it I spent at least an hour in the...

    The Bergara will handle any load the brass will, it's chambered in modern high intensity cartridges. The 45-70 will produce more bolt thrust than say a 308, but other similar actions such as the TCs...

    If you're going to be out in cold conditions look for one with less mesh, it'll be heavier but much warmer. I like my One Planet Goondies and they make a "winter version with less mesh.
