WOW...that's a fantastic looking rifle Duncan.
The wood on that one looks great.
I guess you reload your own ammo.
Will you take it to the range soon??

Met vriendelijke groet,

Martin

Hi Martin.
I cast my own bullets and load my own rounds. Here is the sorry tale of the 'development' stages!http://www.milsurpafterhours.com/bb/vie ... =20&t=6542

I am currently in need of a loading session although I have the bullets ready to go the cases need cleaning and re sizing. I am extending our bedroom at present so will probably not get out with the Enfield until after Christmas. I will post results when I have them. :D :D

Is that why you took the scope off ? Too hard to aim it at the wall you want to knock down ?
