    Would you like a Cigar?

    @Frederik and I taste tested some whiskies. Three Ships 10jr, Ardberg Wee Beasti and Bowmore 12jr and of course we paired it with a cigar of the VF brand. We could not decide on the winner so we will try again this week Friday before our BASA shoot.

    Chainsaws and those who use them

    Excellent shooting. And I hope that I won't have to eat my words.... but..... No 375 makes a buff go googly eyes like that, big bores for the big boys!

    Rifle Fillers

    I just use a piece of pool noodle that I cut with a case of which I sharpened the edges. And then cut to length.

    When loading the 500 Jeffery is a filler (foam plug) needed?

    I make my own foam fillers using pool noodles and an unsized 585Nyathi case that I sharpened the mouth of. Cuts is nice and round. Only loaded from 99 to 109gr so far and used fillers every time. I shoot monolithic bullets, so they are on the longer side. But so far so good.
