Mine is a rifle. You can see a couple of brass dots in the stock. These are from a repair by Walter Roth in Harare, as the stock had a fine split inside he squeezed epoxy into the crack and braced it wiht th ebrass screws, then ground them flush. The target was offhand at 25m, I was quite pleased with the results as I tried 3 different sight pictures 2 shots each. The expanded projie is a Hornady and it stopped in wet sand.

Oh, the filthy case necks come from trying some Westcastings coated 220gn cast bullets. They squirted out before the neck expanded, giving a faceful of gas and black case necks. I tried faster and faster powders and fillers but it was no good and I stopped using the cast bullets. Hence my interest in crimp dies - for another try!

Left: Woodleigh 270gn bought about 2003, centre Kynoch, right Hornady 270gn bought about 2004.
