    Oh Frabulous Day! Lee Case Length Gauge 8X56R

    A guy in another forum tipped me off to these. They are not listed on the Lee website so I don't know why Midway has them listed but Lee doesn't. But if you have the Lee lock stud and cutter it is the absolute easiest way to trim your 8X56R cases!

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    It seems that LEE Presision has become the 8X56R reloader's best friend. My RCBS Trim Pro takes care of the case length but LEE dies, case mouth expander, mold and sizer are what keeps the old girl shooting.
