Hi Gazza
Glad it arrived safe, I started with the offer of a .416 Rigby but had a tidy up of the reloading bench so ended up with a few more....
All the best

Aha!
I remember now and saw the Rigby message when I was trying to detect who you were!
Thank you very much Mike, the kids loved what you sent especially the stripper clip which was loaded up before I could say "is that a stripper clip"
All the best and thanks again
Gaz, Ben & Will

Mr Ovenpaa......
Your parcel has arrived and nearly caused a fight as to who was going to open it. The rattle of brass gave the game away and much riving and tearing of cardboard ensued clapclap
The lads collection has nearly doubled with your donation so a very big thank you from myself, Ben & William
I'm going to try and get them to get it all in some sort of order for an updated pic soon.
All the best
Gaz

Here's an updated picture of the lads collection as promised.
We took a trip down to Ovenpaa country yesterday and called in to see the man himself and Christel who made us most welcome and educated us in all things shooting as well as letting the boys rummage through the ammo boxes of spent cases for more goodies
The lads even came away with a couple of baton rounds
A very big thank you to David and Christel and also everyone who donated cases and clips etc for the lads collection. Its nice to see people in the shooting world being so generous especially in times when people are strapped for cash. :)
We managed to see some samples of the shiny things that David makes in the Shooting Shed too while we were there and the quality of the items is outstanding so be assured people that if you buy from "The Shed" it will be quality gear.
All the best folks
Gaz

Gazza - what a fab collection. Very envious, makes my single row of oddments at the back of my shooting bench look a little pathetic now.....
