Components

#1 Postby Chopper » Wed Jul 12, 2023 2:28 pm

Gday All
Just wondering what you blokes are using now in the way of components Apart from your favorites that are almost impossible to get for Fclass and benchrest or Fly
Many may have found or used some they would Not normally with success ?
My self am at the moment am using some Rem 7/12 primers that are Old but work Well also some Barnes 6mm 105 that are doing the job and some JLK 105 VLD
Maybe a Good learning curve ?
OH and I am using up some 4kgs of the old AR2206 and the 6mm Loves it :)

REM 7 1/2s are grouse primers.
Thankfully my hoarding stockpile is holding out

Perhaps we could look at swapping components amongst us ??
Im sure there are some of us that have stored bulk on one item - yet short with another.

For example I would happily trade an unopened 500 ct - 6mm 105 Berger Hybrids for BR2 / BR4 primers

Maybe some posts in the Buy/Sell section saying what you have spare and what you want to swap for.
As you say, many are now trying other brands which they do not normally look at and are seeing they are going as well or better than what they were using before.
