I suspect the Viking will be asking some questions soon, she asked me a few and I gave her a knowing shrug and a grin, the only thing I did say was 'Nah, feck all recoil...'

Odd she should take an interest in a SOWR..

don't worry, the steel butt plate will reduce the recoil considerably tongueout they are very reloadable for, and apparently love 175gn SMK's or you can buy the PPU 174gr bullets made for the job quite reasonably.

Are they reloaded with .308 or .311 bullets?

0.308"

and always full length resize, you will find people who swear by neck sizing them, but I have met several people who have had problem through not adjusting their full size dies enough, so I would go wit the flow and give them the full works also for research

Yeah, go on then, I have a Viking here going all doe eyed over it and telling me have no need for it, no room and no spare slot so that means she wants it. Are you anywhere near Barton Road Saturday?

Not in the morning as I'm set to take Her Wonderfulness and collect our new specs. As she's been grandson visiting for a week I'll be kept very busy from when she returns into the fold of my loving arms tomorrow (wednesday). Might be able to rig up a ride out Sat pip emma or you could drift over to Bury? I expect Sunday is completely spoken for.

Are we doing a bit of foreplay here or are you committing to purchase perchance? party2

She says she wants it so I guess we have to come to a deal of some sort.

Saturday is BR to 1200 so the day is taken up and I need to work Sunday to make the time up. If you PM me a phone number and convenient time one of us will give you a call.

If the lady wants it then I am happy to help you to fulfil her demands and desires but please, may I just be quite clear that there's no movement on the price "£280 plus transfer fees if necessary", not least as there is another waiting in the wings.

I shall PM you now with contact details though...
