    Latest Project: Toz 8- Single Shot Rifles; Thoughts and Impressions... (UPDATE)

    It arrived Thursday, and after a quick clean and lube I headed for the range. Lots of opportunity for tuning... I initially found the trigger to have a long, gritty take up. Target 1 was me struggling with the trigger; once I got the "two stage" thing figured out (too many good triggers on my...

    Starting to get into Precision .22 shooting... (UPDATED).

    I have been building up a rifle based on a CZ455 Super Match with a MDT Oryx Chassis, a Riton 6 x24 scope, a custom made bag rider built by a guy in Quebec Canada., and a cheap Amazon Carbon Fiber Bipod. I have done a trigger job on it and it is currently about 1 lb, but drop-safe. Very...

    Reloading Component Availability

    A little bit of good news here in Canada; we are starting to see some availability on reloading components. We have had a pretty good availability of powders for a number of months. Projectiles are available, but not always the exact ones that individuals prefer. Primers were spotty and way...

    I wanted something different...

    I was intregued when I read the history of the 9.3 x 62, developed as an affordable and effective arm for German colonists in Africa, and to this day is the minimal cartridge allowable for dangerous game in most African countries. Due to the price of Ammo being up to $120.00 for a box of...

    New addition to the stable...

    If you have not guessed, my favorite rifle cartridge is the 6.5 x 55. Besides the Zastava M70 I picked up a M96 made in Obendorf in 1900; pretty much like new condition. It is an amazing shooter too. I have been searching for the M38 short rifle built in 1944 by Husquvarna, and this weekend I...

    6,5 x 55 never fails to impress...

    Post Covid has proven to be a challenge regarding availability of reloading components. Fortunately, I bought 5 lbs of Dominion D4350 and D4895 when they were available (should have bought 25 lbs of each). I had about 800 large rifle primers (have since found a bunch more), but could not find...

    Reloading...

    Finally, got the bullets I wanted!!! Over a year ago I got a brand new Zastava 6.5 x 55 (nice rifle and unbeatable value BTW) and bought brass but could not find any Sierra 120 gr. Match Kings, so I settled for some Serbian HPBT 120 gr, and found some Hornady 95 gr. V-Tip. Both were OK, but I...

    Bench Rests... What do you use?

    I got sick of the cheap plastic Caldwell ones, and decided to upgrade. I got it for about half the price of a new one, and it is just like new. Can't wait to try it out!!
