After a couple of 358 Pills for testing only 2 or 3 of each
ACP 185's and Barnes 225 TSX

I am thinking the acp's will be good allround and 225's for sambar and buff.

I have been conversing with Mr Mitchell after reading his 358ME article and it will be similar to my swede version.

Kickinback,

Projectiles arrived this morning, I must say that they were the best packaged/labeled I have ever received.

Thanks mate.

That's when they do the operation to open your head and see if there is a brain in there, from memory, they found one once, but then discovered that the person was an ex pollie from Canberra. :lol:

Thanks for the offer kickinback----- I have a Howa in 6.5 x55 and it copper fouls after 15 rounds. I thought I'd try moly to see if it still fouls. Maybe I'll try to moly coat a few of my own pills.
Cheers. Malcolm
