@@gobangs1117 would have loved to see his smithing skills!

Not my fav either.

Nothing much, don't bother.

That is really good to know! Thanks mate, after my little test I came away with a new appreciation for the quality and consistency of CCI LRMPs. I am actually going to do a test of all 3 primers with the same load of 39 grains of AR 2209 and Hornady 108 ELD-X, yeah I found fifty I did not know that I had. The test will be with and without plunger ejector. I hope I'm wrong but I have a suspicion that the ejector plays a part in cartridge alignment. I hope I'm wrong. Also I hope that I don't lose the damn thing when trying to reinstalling it. Cheers.

​@gobangs1117 I've heard that bench rest guys do that to eliminate any variables in the lock up and stop the brass flying away.

@@dougalmcalpine6804 I put it back. I got a hunch.

If you mean primers then this time it cost $190 AUD for 1000.

@@gobangs1117 wow that’s pretty cheap here it’s like 30 bucks for 100 at local gun stores if they got them big box stores cheaper

Ha ha!😆

I'm anal. I sound like a bit of an Erik Cortina acolyte sometimes but his method is precise and is how I'm going to go this time. This will be what I consider the first real precision ammo that I make. Thanks for link mate. Cheers.

👍

Thanks mate.

oy.🦓

Thanks for the heads up, I'll have look at that. Yes it groups crap, I think it's a head space issue. Cheers.

I'll be buying Stocky's again for sure. Thanks mate.

SX82. Thanks mate.

Always good to hear from a happy customer! Cheers.

Thanks mate, always good to have affirmation from viewers, cheers.

I agree, maybe a learner, but it's like driving or any other skill like catching a ball, it should be instinct. I was lucky, out on a farm safety was drummed into us, then we could shoot all we wanted too. Some practice between duck seasons too, not me, no money to waist doing that. And I dont miss many, once you learn it, it's always is the same thing. I was sharp in my teens, I shot bunnies running with a 22. Maybe you either have the skill or not. Scopes are easy too. Best skill is learn your yards by looking. I could shoot a fox in the spotlight and predict the yards within 1-3 yards. Skill I think should be learnt. Predict a tree or something, then step it out. We had no range finders, except our eyes and brains. I could tell your ex army. By the way you talk. Keep up the good work, I like how you talk, like we are in the conversation with you over a beer.

@@darrynworthy7129 Thanks mate, you made my day, cheers.

It took years for the plastic bolt shroud to be replaced with an alloy one so it would appear that they do listen but are not willing to make wholesale changes. One thing I forgot to mention was the difference in performance between stocks, while I was getting muzzle lift with the Tikka stock the MDT Field Stock mostly slides straight back which is what I was hoping for. I have no idea why they won't sell barreled actions or actions alone. Someone said that their barrels are threaded and glued in because I have seen videos of people whilst using the correct tooling having to employ 3 foot extensions in an attempt to unscrew the barrel.

I've never said that Tikkas are freaking great, in fact this was a replacement for a Howa that never came.

I've cut right down on alcohol. Yeah I still have a beer every so often but I just don't feel like drinking these days.

@@gobangs1117 Good work, well done that man!

@@jamesreardon8585 It's never too late to make improvements on oneself. Thanks mate.

I have a T Bolt and I had problems with the Jard. Cheers.

@@gobangs1117 hate to hear that I did notice your videos regarding yours but 🤞 I haven’t on either my LR or mag

@@Dwyer88 Kudos to Jard for even attempting to make the trigger pack. Eventually the problems went away but initially I thought it was a dud. I've even heard of people having Timneys fail after time which has not happened to me.

@@gobangs1117 I agree it’s a great trigger I was little concerned watching your video but eventually took leap being I couldn’t find much other options. The original is junk can’t believe you go to the extreme of making such a nice quality firearm then trash it with that trigger assembly

While the block is not full length the front end is still very rigid, totally OK for a bipod and it's already got the M Lock slots on all 3 sides. I personally think that the Howa HACT Trigger a is better candidate for tuning (honing and spring reduction). It's all held together with E clips and pretty simple to work with. I think overall that the stock is a winner, the Tikka stock does not even have pillars much less a bedding block/s which is very disappointing indeed and it's butt ugly. Cheers.

I actually prefer the MDT Oryx chassis, also the new MDT Field Stock is excellent. Thanks mate.

Mostly around seems and joins which lasts for a while so you need to keep applying over time to maintain integrity. These are budget boots so expecting them to perform like $700 Crispis is unrealistic. Nevertheless they are tough boots for tough terrain and worth the money.

@@sverrehoumb You know we have ski fields here. Tiril Eckhoff's story is a catalogue of superlatives, long live Queen Tiril. Just a huge fan. Happened to start watching biathlon just when she was at her peak. What an athlete!

@@gobangs1117 Great stuff on Tiril! 😄 Btw! I ordered the Vanguard 2 in .223 in a green GRS Bifrost stock yesterday. Should get it in a week or two. Excited to try it out.

@@sverrehoumb Nice, Bifrost stocks are a bit pricey here. I love Bell and Carlson stocks though they are a bit heavy.

Thankyou. By the way I was born well after WW2 regardless of my geriatric appearance.

⁠@@gobangs1117 I was born in 53, so. If we were neighbors, we would be friends.

@@stevesimmons6685 Cheers.

Odd that I've never seen this test either. Perhaps manufacturers need to actually test their claims before marketing.

Sorry for not replying earlier but I've been working in remote areas. Please let me know if you stuck cases after firing with full factory loads like I do.

Sorry for not replying earlier but I've been working in the outback. Nice to read about your experience. Whilst not being a torrent of data, the knowledge I have gained from Cadet shooters like yourself has been most useful to myself. I've recently had advice that Boyne Bullet Company makes projectiles that fit the Bertram Brass cases so I'll have to get some and not have to go through the convoluted process I currently am hampered with. You know I really have to test out my chamber with 32-20 ammo just out of interest. Thanks for commenting.

Apologies for not replying earlier but I've been away working. I would like to see a video from you, time to start producing content amigo.

Thanks mate. Yeah the single stack mag and the plastic are a turn off but I'm gonna chuck it in an Oryx chassis and that will do away with replacing the bottom metal. At least they replaced the bolt shroud with an alloy one for the T3x models.

50m, never had much luck with CCI thru any of my 22s. Even Green Tag has proven to be average.

Recknagel mounts and can't remember what the rings are.

Thanks mate.

Never heard of it. Low carb, low alcohol and prescription cannabis. Good to hear from ya bud. I'll be sure to watch that South Park episode. Cheers mate.

Thanks mate.

I'm semi carnivore. Thanks mate.

20 inch, thanks mate.
