how much at cape union

only $30 .... might have to buy one even though I don't need it do they ship to SA

thanks. Recon starting with the minimum load is the best.

So I’ve been advised that I can use S361 as a replacement for s365 on my 270 rounds if I use a magnum primer. Any with experience on this? Is it necessary to use a magnum primer?

thanks for the advise

thanks. I have a buddy who has all the loading kit and I've been given around 150 cases and bullets. So all I need to purchase are the primers and powder to load these ones. I don't plan to spend the money on all the kit but will chip in with this guy. Loading is more about having fun together Will have a look at jaracal

So I’ve been given a few cases and bullets to load a few and figure out what works best for the 270 howa rilfe I’ve just purchased. I’ve been given pmp cases and a combination of 90 grain sierra verminter, 120 grain peregrine and 140 grain nosler ballistic tip bullets So I’m looking for advice on two things What bullet grain would your recommend and What powder replacement for the 365 would you suggest? 365 is proving challenging to get hold of I realize that that there are soo many variables at play but assuming I’m just starting out and will be shooting up to maybe 200m to start out with and just figuring out what works best for my rifle, what would you recommend I use?

thanks

I'm looking for a silencer with a 1x14 thread. If anyone has a secondhand one please let me know. Not looking to spend too much as it's my first rifle and still getting into everything. I stay in CT area

has anyone made their own brass tumbler / cleaner and willing to share there plans. Thinking of making one with a buddy

Morning I’ve been given the following that I’ll be reloading over the next few months in anticipation of the approval of my license. Hopefully I’ll be shooting these by December. I’ll be shooting a Howa 1500 .270 Brass once fired cases: 76 pmp cases 52 R P cases 29 winchester case Tips 100 sierra verminter 90 grain 30 peregrine 120 grain 20 nosler ballistic tip 140 grain Looking for recommendations on combinations of the above for reloading or does the combination of cases and tips not really matter?

he does say he needs 1 more:) but he isn't sure. Was talking about a .243 or a 6.5 He isn't planning big game hunting

my buddies firearms from left handgun - not sure .22 hornet 270 .22 12 gauge double up .22 on top and shotgun below

had another fun sunday morning shooting the .22 and ended off with some shotgun rounds. Soon I'll have to get a .22 and a shotgun the way things are going.

very cool. The .22 bug has bitten bad....i really want one. But will have to wait for my current license to come through and finish paying for this first rifle before I buy another. Although my wife already approves because she wants to come shooting as well. Saw a few good looking .22 rifles for R1k yesterday

if you decide to maybe dispose of it let me know. I've been wanting a bench and was thinking of a 2.5-3m long bench.

was hoping to shoot a hornet over the week end but we didn't get time. There's a nice hornet for sales on one of the gun sites at the moment A friend of mine has had a few .22's licensed without any problem. Would probably use the motivations you all list. Chepar ammo to practice will get motivations from a few farms I am access to. My inlaws have a farm as well so hopefully will be ok any will enter the .22 sports shooting series But will only get it next year so we'll see

went shooting a .22 on Saturday. Just pigeons and guinea fowl on a small farm. What a load of fun. Drove around in the bakkie and shot out of the vehicle. The farmer was happy as they eat his seeds and we had loads of fun. Have to look for a .22 now:)

thanks. it was that first part I couldn't find. appreciate the help

it's probably in this thread somewhere but too long to look through. On the new discovery app format where do I find the option to link devices? I can't find it on the new looking app

thanks gummi The reason i asked is because I don't ever want to leave it unattended. If it was stolen I'd be in serious serious poo. Might have to look at a hardcase. Will also have to find a hiding place for the keys

I have two questions What do you guys do when travelling with a rifle say on holiday. When you stop at a restaurant for a break what do you do with firearm? Do you leave it unattended in the car or what? I want to take my rifle to the but I know we'll have to stop along the way Secondly what do you guys do with safe keys. In theory I guess we shouldn't be leaving the safe keys hanging up with the rest of the house keys. But safe keys are also quite big to be carrying around all the time. Do you try and hind them somewhere or what?

not sure about the scope. It says remington I think but can't recall the details. It came with the rifle and I'm sure it'll be fine to start out with to a few hundred meters. But will need to look for something better. Am contemplating a bipod or just using the support bags.

so i bought my first rifle:) howa 270. Secondhand but looks brand new. Doesn't look like the previous owner shot much. No marks on the stock and everything looks clean. Now to start the license application

it's currently at a reputable gun shop so hoping it's all good. They recon it's in good condition.
