Go to the castboolits website and investigate the forum.....particularly the group buy section.Miha often does overruns on group buys and at present has a list of in stock molds at this site.I have several of his molds and they are exceptional.I am also in on another 5 or 6 group buys for his...

I used to own/shoot/hunt/reload a 17AH on a martini action.....brilliant cartridge and I have regreted selling it from the moment it left my hands!!!! You will enjoy yours immensely!!! A very efficient little round and its performance will surprise you - check out saubier.com for load data...

CoRoMo's drawing/technique is spot on....that is exactly what they taught us when I was studying to become a veterinarian. A .22 long rifle correctly used (placed) is more than adequate - obviously in built up areas/confined spaces a captive bolt is used. Regards Peter.

Hope that it is OK to post this here................this is my favourite section of THR....thats why I chose here. A great friend,mentor,fisherman and hunter passed away a few hours ago. His name was Dr David Johnson and he was a good man.He loved everything about the...

rg1 - some things we can purchase from the USA without import permit from govt. eg scopes,dies,reloading press etc and lots of people are doing this.....the only problem is postage costs which can be high (though you can fit a lot into flat rate parcel)and finding a business who will ship to...

Thankyou all for your advice - all of it excellent. There aren't many custom shop rifles in Australia hence my interest. They want top dollar so a range test and authentication makes sound sense. Don't know if they will come at this however. I'm buying this as a deer rifle not a closet...

Have a chance to examine a (possible) used remington custom shop rifle in .30-06 and if in good condition am tempted to buy it. Are there any marks on these rifles that say they are from the custom shop? Is there any date stamps on custom shop rifles that indicates manufacture date? Finally are...

Marlin - .45acp is pretty much dead in Australia due to tough new laws. I don't shoot pistols over here (yet) so am not up to date on regs but you can only shoot up to .357/9mm on standard pistol licence. Basically big bores are banned - however cowboy action shooters are allowed an exemption...

At 6 and 1/2 she is still a pup!! Too young to have cataracts and also too young for normal age related changes - prob. just result of flash. An easy way to test night vision (if she comes inside) is to move furniture around and then let her into house in very subdued lighting.......if she runs...

Cooch - great story and some of the worlds finest country there :D. JRT's are great little dogs - full of courage and self importance and are great family/small guard dogs as well!! Looks like Shorty has a few years on her...........how old is she? There is some opacity in both eyes , prob...

GaryL - Aussie troops are well respected worldwide and by their countryman (apart from how some Viet Vets were treated, which was a disgrace).There are numerous examples in military history to back up this claim but I like the quote by Rommel when explaining to his boss (Hitler) why the german...

Thanks for your replies. MMCSRET - to my knowledge Simplex is still available and I agree that they are good little presses. I used their dies when I used to form 17AH brass. Neil Harvey reload manual is excellent - there is now an eighth edition available. Highly rec. to everyone. SSNVet -...

Thankyou all for your kind replies. This forum has a real nice vibe about it ......everyone is to be congratulated on that. GaryL - guns aren't outlawed just our laws tightened after a few nutters ran riot and killed a lot of innocent people...you may have heard of the Port Arthur massacre...

Thanks 1858...Oz is a great country...shame about our firearms laws and how our government has shafted us. Currently have Brno no2 .22 and Winnie 101 12G Field, am in process of purchasing old Brno 22Hornet and in coming months/years have 221 Fireball, 17AH , 30-30,30-06, 7x57 and 45-70 (ruger...

After long break from shooting and reloading thought it was time to get back into this wonderful sport/hobby/obsession .....costs after a long break were a shock and thought you guys in the states may be interested in cost comparison!!Prices have been converted to US$ to make it easy. Primers...

Hi there fellow shooters, hunters, reloaders!! Thankyou all for such an informative, friendly forum... have been watching and learning for a while and thought I'd say hi and thanks.About me - born 61 and from the age of 17 lived, breathed and yearned for the outdoors...shooting (field and game)...

Hi from Australia. I'm not an expert but I think the deer photo in original post is an exotic..........prob. a muntjac.
