    Thumbs up Some rounds out of my selfmade No.4 MKI* "T"

    Hi to all,

    After an long production time, i was able to shot my selfmade LE Sniper this evening.
    At first i want to thank Peter Laidlericon for his perfect advices and the mounting Pads. Also Roger Payneicon did an great job with his excellent Scopemounts. Now my rifle is missing its cheakpad, but my sister in law, who is an carpenter, will make this part as soon as possible.

    After adjusting the rifle, i let it cool down and made the first shot. You will see it as the one above. The next 4 round grouping was a bit to high. After finding an better POA and a new adjusting the second 4 round group looks really great to me. Shooting was at 100 yards. I am more than satisfied with the work and the result.

    Best Regards

    Gunner

    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.

    Have a fun shoot, Gunner!

    Just don't be surprised by the "unexpected". First time out with a new rifle, racecar, or whatever in actual competition seems to be the best way to find the "bugs". You think you thought of everything and then...Don't ask me how I know!
