Steve Beaty. Ivythorn sporting.

[Alpha1]

I bought a rifle from this dealer last year. A 6.5x55 Tikka M55 fitted with a shilen match barrel. I had a few problems re loading for it and chambering factory rounds in it. I contacted Steve and asked if he had any information on the rifle build etc. He said he would contact the previous owner and get back to me.
I didn't hear any thing from him but realized that M55 was a short action and hence the cartridge over all length had to be altered to suit.
Imagine my Surprise to day when a dealer friend of mine came up to me on the firing point and said Dave I have some thing for you from
Ivythorn Sporting they sent this to me because they have lost your address deatails. I have been carrying it around for ages. He then presented me with a box of six dummy rounds in different cartridge over all lengths and a three page document with reloading data.
How is that for service.

Great customer service - BUT - how come they lost your details, for a firearm sale???

Probably because the rifle was sent to a registered fire arms dealer. The registered fire arms dealer did evey thing on my be half. They ordered the rifle had it delivered to them. I went and inspected the rifle and bought it they then signed it on to my ticket. I paid them they paid Steve.
They are worth a mention as well great people to deal with. CharlesStuartAssociates.

+1 for Ivythorn
Bought my first rifle there Howa 308. Spent lots of time with me, we put a box of ammo through it on their range, adjusted the trigger for me. Really helpful.

I only ever hear good things about Steve and Ivythorn and on the few occasions we have spoken by 'phone he seems like a good person.
