    CVA RB only, minnie or maxi

    Thankyou longcruise. ATM i cant check. But ill check the barrel in a couple of weeks. See if it has any ID stamped on it. It's a 26 or 27" barrel and turns a little more than 1/4. So about 65" to 72" depending on how you calculate it.

    Bees wax test

    Some time ago I bought some bees wax on ebay. It is a yellow/orange colour. I now suspect it may not be bees wax. Is there a simple way/test to confirm if it is, or isn't?

    DIY Peep sight

    Had a crack a while back but ran out of balls. So, anyway got it sighted in yesterday today. With care I managed about 1 1/4" groups at 30 yards. From what I gather its about what I can expect. Any way it will do.

    Minie for .50 1/72 twist

    Hi Lawrence, Thx for the offer. That's great. But not yet. Let me see how this peep works out first. I hope to put a few through it on Monday. I saw the Lee 250s and have registered to get an email once they are back in stock. I have a feeling the 250s are the go. I've re-measured the twist...
