Sometimes I start thinking about things and this is one of those times.
In an article/thread on here about the 318WR, it mentioned that WR at one time used P14 actions to make them. Some very quick digging suggested a P17 would be a better fit.
As I have some possible donor actions for this...
No rush for this, just a little fishing. Looking at a 300H+H project. I have the rifle with a 308 target barrel (on a P14 action) and would like to make it into a classic one day
Bugger all of these reamers about in NZ. We don't have access to the reamer for hire services either really
Dont...
Hey I have several of these and looking for some advice. I have got quite used to being able drop ammo from my normal sporting rifles (mauser, winchester and remington), as they all have a button or such that can be pushed to drop the floorplate.
I have several BSA modified P14s that still have...
I have an early Remington 700 416 Remington. It came with the factory Remington sights.
I will firstly say i have asked a similar question a while back but i have had a change of plan
Is there hi-vis set that will fit as in screw on using the factory threads?
I do realise the front sight height...
I have to be fair but I haven't measured the cases so probably not imperative at the moment.
Been looking at a case trimmer for the 416. Not a lot here in Kiwiland.
Already have a Lyman ezee trim set but need a 416 pilot which I can't seem to find, I also have a lee quick trim, the one that...
Please forgive me if I sound like a dummy here.
Reading about going on safari and one of the things that popped up was getting used to and practising shooting from sticks. I know what it is but it isn't something that hunters in NZ do that much. Our topography and style of hunting doesn't...
As the thread title suggests, has anyone had experience with mounting an express/leaf sight on the rear receiver ring? A bit like the Brno integral peep sight but obviously a leaf and most likely mounted to a scope base of some type.
All the benefits of an express sight but with the longer sight...
hey gentlemen. I would imagine this would be the premium forum in discussions about this. A lot of people using a variety of 30 cal magnums on a lot of game
In the future, I have a project that will eventually turn into a 300 mag of some sort.
300 win mag would be the easiest and simplest but I...
At the moment I have a circa 97 leupold vx-111 1.5-5 on the 416.
Let's be honest here, haven't shot a lot of game with it and nothing for years. Was in Aussie for over 10 years and I didn't have it there and have used other more appropriate rifles since being back.
Whilst it is a pretty good...
Ummed and ahhed about putting this in reloading but opted for more of a general forum.
Apologies if it's in the wrong spot like I did with the 416 thread of mine
just recently added a Czech Mauser to the menagerie. Got a packet of PMC 170grs, a mixed packet of 196gr norma and S+B soft points and...
EDIT: damn and blast, thought this was in the 375 and up page. apologies unless the moderators can move it for me. Went to delete and start again but failed miserably.
As per the thread title, I have a Remington 700 in 416 rem. After doing some searching for that calibre on here, I have found...
I have a remington 700 in 416 Remington. Bought about 1995 I think. It has standard remington open sight (removed at present) and always considered getting some more classic express sights for it. I do realise I should be measuring the OD of the barrel to get the right heights etc.
Whats...
Done a bit of lurking and finally joined up. Never been to Africa but would love to one day for a big old dagga boy and give the 416 remmy a go. Don't do as much hunting as I should but that's my fault as there is some good stuff around.
Anyway all the best and happy new year
