Greetings Earthlings.
Thought i would do the ol intro thingy.
Shot alot in my younger years, till i found beer and woman, but now it's just the beer. So i need something to occupy my mind as well as my OCD nature.
Wife suggested i get back into killing paper.
I have a Howa .223 SS Varmint Short Action 1-9 twist matched to a GRS laminate stock with a 6x24x50 Bushy mounted on top.
Also a Ruger American Target .22 with a Bushy AR223 to look through, after 2 warranty problems with feeding issues it shoots amazingly.
I have started loading my own .223 and getting some success, I managed to get hold of a 2nd hand set up with single Hornady press, RCBS dies, extractor, powder, projectiles, primers, powder thrower and about 5000 cases.
Because i have a "must win" mentality i have been playing with pill weights and styles, powders, seating depths, OAL, COL & COAL, power weights and generally sending Dr Google into melt down.
Anywho glad to be in an Australian Shooting Forum, i like it so far.
