It does look like a nice rifle. Unfortunately I am not a fan of the .270. Always found it a bit too hard a recoiling rifle to shoot comfortably. I have been looking at .243 and 7mm-08.Originally Posted by renegade master

Nope, I've not been in a rush to sell it as I'm not getting out much. PM'd a price.

Cheers for that, Chris, will aim to ensure I have the time off in order to attend - gutted that I haven't been able to catch up and join anyone for a shoot.
Will be odd visiting you without lugging a large collection of "hardware".
Motorbike Camping for the win!

Never fired a 7mm-08, definitely like .243 cal.

Sorry to change the subject.
I've just bought some old .303 hollow points and they came in a box marked 'true flite" and apparently made by H Dutton & Co Ltd of Auckland.
Anybody know who they are or were? I googled it but nothing came up.
Wearing Hi-Viz Black.
Dutton was based in an industrial unit in Glenfield (Wairau Rd area) and was mainly gunsmithing (iirc!).
He would have imported/repackaged projectiles I suspect (happy to be corrected) but never saw anything like that the times I went there.

That would make sense, I got them from wairau road. Was a big setup or just some dude in a shed? What happened to him? No support for local industry?
Kiwi back at home!
As my little sister put it "Brunette, wranger n blondie nice shot! "
Was helping a farmer down Nelson lakes way and got a few hundred of the buggers on a single hill over a few nights, great way to improve quick shooting and estimating ranges and holdovers!
.308 saw no action though, bush is very dry down there and noisy as hell and our normal haunts were without sign!
Was interesting the number of "wranger" and black rabbits in the population.

It was just a small industrial unit. I have no idea what happened to the company.

Had the bridge mounts on my 303 done there. Good workmanship. Pity they closed down.

I think this is relativley true, although a licence was granted for the operation to load certain commercial and military rounds, if the original poster reads this can you post the details of the head stamp, the letters or numbers on the bottom of the brass case,s and are they all the same in the box ??. Pretty sure they will go bang and do whats expected though. Cartridge collectors will be interested if the box and rounds are original.

The original rounds must have been used up and now the box has been used for storing spare/odd rounds. It's full of odd fmj .303 british rounds, mostly cac, s&b and some others i've never heard of.
despite being a pohm, I like to support local industry where i can, and would rather have bought off a local manufacturer if i could, so reallly that's why i was wondering where they were. would dutton have been repackaging/reloading rounds from the colonial ammunition co. old stock?
There are some .303 true hollow points, which i've never seen before, marked KF 67.
Some cac soft points, perhaps reloaded milsurp stuff?
The KF hollowpoints have a thicker base which makes the bolt a tight closing fit in my No4.
