Thanks for the replies gents. Reason in the back of my mind did tell me that there isn't a huge amount of difference between the two actions, so strength shouldn't be too different. Also that MkVII...

Thanks for the replies gents. This gives me a bit to go on. My thinking is that I will stay away from having the barrel bands touching the barrel. My reasoning is that I can always add packing in if...
Hi all I posted this question in the reloading forum. Just thought it might get a bit more interest in this forum. I am wanting to get a Shortened Range Pattern MLE going for .303 Fullbore...

Hi all,
Just been thinking on the way that the MLE's and Shortened Range Pattern rifles were bedded in the forend. Does anyone have any info on how this was done or any tricks that were used?

Im just interested to see if anyone has tried them yet and how they go.
Just wondering if anyone has tried out the Criterion No4 barrels? There was a lot talk about them last year and haven't heard much this year.

Hi Enfield 111
Just a quick question about the barrel for your rifle. Did you machine any of the bolt channel out for the barrel when you set it back for the 45ACP or just make it the same diameter...

Yeah mate. That's it. Best thing about solder is if you file too much off, just put another dob on and start again.
I have been stuffing around making a .22 Long Rifle MkI* replica rifle (MLE or Longtom .22) today from a worn sporter and had a similar issue with an original extractor. It would jump over the rim of...
