Nice ones though RCS.

Well I have been looking at this 303 round for a while trying to make out a who, what and when, as all I could figure with it was 8 F.1 VII.Z.
It plagued me for a fair while and I was going to post...
Another shelf dweller took a while to get this one together given our geographical location its about 90% complete, missing the arming vane part and firing cartridge.

(Apparently the T10's are collectable)

I gather that's a 30/06 round for comparison, its obviously a paper patch and the lead projie is showing very advanced decay. Its most probably a discontinued line but with out measurements it is...
Nice RCS the case has a long neck on the W C C case some of the bigger magnums have short necks, that is the main issue with the 6.5 x 284 I use a short neck.

That 22 Newton sure has a long projectile almost looks like my 6.5 x 284's rifles cartridge.
Whilst I have been yapping about Weatherby's thought I would dig out my Weatherby line up the only one missing is the 30/378 which I will get one day.
It took a while to get them all together in...
I am pretty sure that is the Tyrannosaurus cartridge and the range is in the emirates, I like old Billy Bob after he gets dusted and breaks the glass door, people stuff up with recoil they fight it...
Here is a pic of myself 04/05/2006 firing my friends MkV 460 Weatherby Magnum in its standard stock with no dead mule, the rifle is in full recoil having just launched a 500gn projie at around 2,600...
