rugeruserJeez Eric,
My ex flipped her lid when I bought my son his 223, made for a total of 3 guns currently in possession, and a grand total of 8 guns purchased over nearly 30 years, plus basic (as in RCBS Partner press, Lee rgb dies, etc) reloading gear. Christ almighty, If ever you decide to let your missus off the leash, as in permanently, I want to marry her!!
Still chuckling over the pics you sent me! I've also sent a pm.
Pete

Bad Ass WallaceNah, I sort of got sick and tired of oiling 152 every 3 months and made a concious decision to reduce to 99. Then I would like to buy me one more - either an original Winchester 1885 highwall or an 1886 Winchester lever in 38/56.
I've been buying for about 35years and you know how it is you see a better one and the first just goes to the back of the cupboard and before you know it you got 152! and you think "Shit I better rationalise and get the numbers down"
I like to do this one at a time and about 2 weeks apart; that way the bloody coppers will be printing my 21 page manifest all bloody year. It will sent them beserk

I am section captain for military rifle and the lads are always lookinf for good service rifles. Likewise good big game rifles are few & far between and I often have inquiries for them.

What`s the 404 Jeff you want to offload?
09 February 2004, 17:39
Bad Ass WallaceRuger No 1 404. Rebarrelled 22/250 with 27" Douglas barrel ( long time before Ruger thought of it)
Has 70 RWS cases, dies (Peter Davern), projectiles. Fired about 100 jacketed rounds and about 600 paper patched lead rounds.
When jacketed got too dear, I devised a method of paper patching Tiapan 416 jacketed to 425 and shot them as full loads with excellent accuracy
Alan Swan of Brisbane did all the smithing. The SSAA Big Game Section folded in Brisbane about 6 years ago so I don't use it now.
Asking $950 ono for the package.
09 February 2004, 17:55
Bad Ass WallaceRuger No1 - 28" Douglas heavy octoganal barrel (1-14")
Custom french claro walnut stock
10x Lyman all american scope in Ruger mounts
RCBS 4 die set including trim die
70 RCBS cases
BPCR sillouette won't let me use it because it doesn't have exposed hammer (stupid rule)
Will exceed specs for 458Lott with jacketed bullets
Far Canal supposed to be over this week and I'm hoping he will bring his digital camera for some pics
Asking $1800 ono
