Re: Arken Zulus Night Vision
They do have limited eye relief so you probably wouldn't put it on something with serious recoil. But fine for 223, 204 or any of the 17s.

Re: 20 PPC
Berger do a run of the 55s from year to year. I think there are some available in the UK at the moment. I think their BC is around 340.

Arken Zulus Night Vision
These are unbelievably good. Great day and night picture even at high digital magnification. LRF with ballistic aiming solution. This works really well with extending the range of a 22 or air rifle. Also gives you confidence shooting a centre fire at night over distance. On board IR is a laser diode...

Re: 20 PPC
Thanks. I've been trying 28.5gn but am thinking of backing it off.
If Redding make a full length bushing die for the 22 ARC, I might be tempted to change to a 20 ARC.

Re: .17 Ackley Hornet
My first wild cat. A cheap Brno ZKW 468 22 K Hornet was the donor. MAB did the barrel work. I got it sighted in and Dad was up for trying out on foxes spotlighting. He drove the old ute. Me in the back holding the 100 watt Watco in my left hand, shooting with the rifle resting on my forearm. We got ...

Re: Barnard Tikka T3 Trigger
Would this work on a Sako 75. What cost are they?

Re: Forster case trimmer/neck turner
Yep I get 0.4mm thick. 6.3mm wide. 36.64mm long. 31.30 long on shorter side. It has a curved shape to fit under the bearing. The long side is at the back. The angle obviously being consistent with the shape of the cut out on the bit you turn to progress the neck turn. Maybe you could trim a feeler ...

Re: What new builds have you dreamt up during these idle times?
Back in 2008 I was thinking I needed a 17 that would work using 223 brass, 25gn Vmax, or 30 Berger. Therefore 1 n 9 twist. I had a reamer made up which matched the Redding 17 Mach 1V full length die for the front end but the length of a 223 case. I acquired a 1 n 9 twist Krieger barrel. I didn't pro...

Re: Digital scopes
Yep. A tripod or sticks like Viper sticks make using night vision style scopes easier. It's much easier working the buttons standing up.
I just acquired the Viper sticks with the 5th leg so it can idependtly hold the rifle.

Re: Digital scopes
I would agree with that and it is a challenge from the perspective of sighting the scope in. The pixelation means you cannot see your bullet holes especially of small calibers at 100 plus meters. You either have something you can use as a spotting scope or walk to the target and mark it so you can s...

Re: Digital scopes
I've got the Pulsar Digisight 455. They have now made it in the Thermion configuration (traditional scope) which would be much better for mounting on a bolt action. They will cost more and are not yet available here. The 450/455's are extremely light sensitive which is great if you want to use them ...

Re: ATN X-Sight 4k Pro 5-20 IR torch test
Rob. Thanks for the update. I've recently acquired the Pulsar Digisight 455. Avoiding the ATN software update experience was a big factor in my choice. The compromise of degraded picture at high power is frustrating when sighting in but the price point to avoid this is too high for me. It's pity the...

Re: ATN X-Sight 4k Pro 5-20 IR torch test
Can you give an update on how the X sight 4 k pro performs for you and which IR emitter is working the best. Does the laser work better in the field than the led torches?
