It really is marvellous seeing a designer and a manufacturer working together here for the good of the sport. :-)

Yes, Gaz, David copes with my bad character, but I enjoy the common 'work' and only the result count.

David,

The double ended one will remain a feature of the INCH and Delta and eventual descendence....

The floating FP for Swings, Paramounts and RPA has to be diameters stepped to cope with the bolt borings, one of the reasons for the single tip.

I will explain you at Bisley (if you buy me a beer) the reasons of those endemic breakages.....

I have the drawings for it, and perhaps still one or two spares somewhere.

I can see there will be a lot of beer buying over the days at the Imperial, especially if Chris can join us as well.

Am at Imperial all week - look for tent nearest Canada house / Herts flag & will have Beer / wine & wood burning stove to keep warm with. Swing will be in armoury so we can try what ever on it if you wish?
