Re: Tikka t3 10 shot mag

When I had a Tikka (now sold) I bought an all metal one from Cleaver. Out of the box they worked fine when fully loaded but when getting to the last few rounds in the mag I found the spring didn't have much push behind it. I never took it apart to stretch the spring as I sold the rifle shortly after...

Re: Weatherby MkV Accumark in .257Wby

Cheers Rob! I did a fair bit of load development with my old .25/06 and took everything from rabbits to deer so I figured the .257wby will be that much better 8) The 26inch pipe may get me some more FPS but the animals won't notice the difference hehe. The GF hit me up about heading to Victoria late...

Re: New 22Mag (9422M)

I have one of these I picked up years ago for $100 off a farmer. Of course I didn't question the price and now it sits happily in my safe. I hope you have many years of fun with it :D

Re: Remington M700 After Market Stocks

G'day Adam. Its for a 7mm rem mag project of mine. It's for walking/stalking mainly not LR Varminting. I should have clarified this in the OP.

B&C is what I am leaning towards at the moment. Those SG Gunstocks look the bees knees though!

Re: Remington M700 After Market Stocks

Thanks jacksaligari. Sorry if my OP wasn't very clear. I was more after brand names or model suggestions that would work for my particular application, not where to buy them from. I will take a look though!

Remington M700 After Market Stocks

G'day Guys & Girls,

I am after some suggestions for one of my rifles. I wish to swap the timber stock for a harder wearing synthetic one. Prefer just a straight drop in with no gun smithing required. Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks in advance - Ben
