    Sidearms & Scatterguns p22 saddle mount

    Anyone used one? Got any recomendations or even pics of one fitted to show size? Seem to be a few generic options about to choose from other than the Walther option which I read somewhere is plastic.

    design a comp

    Being from the big dry island that I am we have limited access to firearm types and practical/tactical/precision comps other than BR. If you were to design a comp with the limiting factors being bolt action rifles in either centrefire or rimfire or both. And pistols either wheelguns or semis...

    338 Lapua, 95gr. Retumbo??

    Things you need to consider as individual variables off the information given even with everything else constant. OAL. Distance to lands/freebore Primer. Brass capacity. Scale accuracy. And also bore. Combine the extreme of all together and their data might be bad news for you. For...

    Agreed. Here is an overview of the facts presented in this thread. 1. Persons who have actual experience with this line are very limited but those that have have been positive. 2. Tikka260 uses both hands whilst being a "real operator" in his grandma's basement. Pretty sure that about...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Walther p22 safety issue- won't go to safe

    See, where I come from dumb asses with no actual experience or knowledge of guns write the rules to which we must comply. Very little makes sense here at all.

    Nosler 125gr Ballistic Tip for .308...any success stories?

    Fat finger phone phukup . Ft / sec. Not the auto corrected from. My bad. 30" is 12 twist. The rest were tens. Edit. Checked my data. 70.15mm oal or 2.76 in the old scale. Cci lr in lapua brass fls to feed from the mag in any rifle so couldn't tell you how far off the lands they are...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Walther p22 safety issue- won't go to safe

    Rifle shooter. Pistol nooooob . So I can neither confirm nor deny which is where the 'I believe' came into it. Have to make some checks. Why do you ask?

    Nosler 125gr Ballistic Tip for .308...any success stories?

    I run them for critters. 4 out of 5 308s run the same load as the original load workup shot well enough in the rest I never tried improving it. And their jumping as loaded to factory oal over 50.2 win 748 a touch over 3000 ft sec depending on barrel length. The only rifle that didn't like...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Walther p22 safety issue- won't go to safe

    That's a lovely idea and all. But for storage or transport or both I believe handguns have to be temporarily deactivated to be legal here. The inbuilt lock seemed like a good idea but thinking I'll use a regular trigger lock. The finished product. Biblified and beautified.

    Rifle Scopes Export laws for tactical scopes

    Care to expand on that as it really doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Specifically the in Australia due to the laws part. What laws?

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Walther p22 safety issue- won't go to safe

    I'm no expert but the front sight is loose. Don't want to glue it on . Maybe I can drill and tap a 2mm screw perhaps.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Walther p22 safety issue- won't go to safe

    Nope, haven't taken it out. It did need a bloody good clean tho. The firing pin was sticking inside the bolt. Degreaser, compressed air, oil, compressed air, repeat a few times sorted it. I'll take the safety levers off and have a better look and give it a better clean but for now that problem...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Walther p22 safety issue- won't go to safe

    Picked up a used p 22. 09 model in good overall condition and looks to of had minimal use. But the safety lever won't throw to safe. Only makes it 2/3 of the way there. I've read about a walking safety but can't find a similar problem anywhere. Yet to properly strip it and give it a good clean...

    Night Vision Distance and resolution of night vision

    You should be able to get a manual pump for a pcp for a couple hundred so don't need the scuba gear. Either will do just thinking the shrouded air rifles would be the go without the added expense of a can or stuffing around with multiple types of ammo. My air rifle is co2. Not powerful for 50...

    Night Vision Distance and resolution of night vision

    Had a play with my setup. Will easily do what you require. Yard is only 50 yards long so couldn't stretch out but can easily see mortar joints in brick fence and individual leaves at that distance. Get a dedicated pcp for it.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Walther P22 Mods

    If you can that'd be good. I searched around for a while and could only find the usual they are crap. Mines got ten k thru it. What year did they fix this or that. Nothing came to me about any mods. I did see one pic Google searching of a red dot saddle mount of some sort. But couldn't find any...

    Night Vision Distance and resolution of night vision

    No idea where he is. I think 50 yards is doable with digital. Will pretty much come back to you scope quality and to crank the mag up your going to need a good ir source. If I get a chance next weekend I'll see if I can set up something at 50 yards and see what I can pick up in the way of...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Walther P22 Mods

    Curious if anyone has done any mods or I guess you could say improvements to a p22? I'm aware of the bible and aware you can't polish a turd. I just like to tinker and explore the possibilities if they exist. Things like different barrel sleeves like chrome or polished 4140 or something...

    Night Vision Distance and resolution of night vision

    Yep, there are a heap of DIY versions on youtube and commercially available options as well. Check out "RolaidsBench" He's got a few hours of viewing and different types of setups he's made. If I had a dedicated night rifle for ratting or such I'd go a completely digital version like his V3.0...

    Night Vision Distance and resolution of night vision

    Maybe look into digital night vision that attaches to your regular day scope. I've been using one for a month or so now mostly for rabbits and foxes at night. This one cost me about $650 au and was one of the first limited production run to be made by a company here in Australia. Basically...
