Beautyful rifle! I own a m/38 Husqvarna and gave it a try with a 139grs. Lapua Silvermoly bullet and 36.0grs of the Lovex D 073.4. It performs great and the data´s out of my Quick-Load say that it is...
Congrats on this one! You´ve made it better than me...i mean in case of the scope. I´ve got only an old Kahles scope and to make it perfect, it was an old snipers scope used by the Wehrmacht...
Thank you jmoore! Interesting is, that the H380 has the similar burning rate like the N140 but you will find only a few loading datas with the .308 caliber and more for lighter bullets like 100 grs....
Talked now to a VV employee and he told me that they will produce the gun powders til June 2014 and are looking to find a investor. So maybe it will be longer to get. Now i ordered the Accurate 2700...
Thank you Bruce,
the only experience i have with the american powders i with H310 and Titegroup. And thats exaclty what i want, using one sort of powder for more calibers.
No opinon? Ok, than i need to buy all of them and test them, thanks!
I dont like glossy finishes. They weren´t in use with army rifles.....only glossy looking rifle i can remember is a shellack finished Mosin-Nagant M1891.
Hello all,
for the reason that VithaVouri will stop their powder production for sportsshooters i need to think over the use of some new powders. All of my rifle loads are based on the VV N140,...
Congrats to this nice one!
Thank you very much for the kind words! Yes i had indeed good luck with this rifle it shows that patience is sometimes a good attribute. I wanted such a rifle since 4 years and havent found a good...
Thanks guys! The stock wax wasnt a bought one it was a selfmade wax out of bees wax, lineseed and natural terpene. I have it from Jay Currah´s page and it is a good one.
Beerhunter, i am sure that some collectors will roll their eyes, but this is for shooting and by the way, it wasn´t looking good before... all in all the new owner had a offer to sell it like it is...
Hi all,
today i have some pics of a nice No.4 Mk2. This beauty was offered to a friend of mine. An elderly shooter, who has now a worse eyesight gave it to him with the wish that he may have a...
I can only give you my experiences and they are good with PRVI. I used the S&B but they aren´t that good. After a maximum of 3 reloding turns, they tend to crack. Remington is good, but expensive...
The PRVI will definately last longer. I use a lot of 300 cases since i have first bought them 5 years ago. This year i need to replace some of them. Fire them shorten them to 0.10mm shorter than the...
180grs. S&B FMJBT, CCI large rifle primers, 37,8grs VV N140, OAL 77,8mm works greatwith all 3 LE´s i have
Yesterday evening i fired my new rifle for the first time. I used the ammo that i´ve made for my two other LE´s, a 180grs bullet atop of 37,8grs of VV N140. For the reason that i stripped the rifle...
I definately will do it. Tomorrow i will make me the ammo that i use for my other Enfield´s and will see if it shoots with one of both.
Thank you all for your nice comments! Today i had the buttstock at a friend who is a technician with the German Police and he said its indeed R.F.I. and not R.R.F.. There have been to little...
Thanks Patrick! I hope so. I need to make some ammo and test it at Wednesday.
Ridolpho, let me look for a better camera. There are some weak markings but i dont get it to see with my camera.
Thank you, gsimmons!
Thank you Patrick!
It is fine looking, no rust on the whole metalwork. Yes it would be a anusual place for the unit markings but it is definately a R.R.F and not the RFI. This is my second rifle...
Today i got my new family member and have seen that some...lets call them non professionals have done some work. First, the engraved makers marks at the left side of the reciever are missing. I have...
Ok, here is my starter. Shot today with my Winchester M1917 in .30-06.
