    Question Loose as a goose

    Hi, guys,

    I've got an MK 2 from AC a while back. The bore is very good. I'm using RCBS, part #57923 with 12 gr. Blue Dot and a large pistol primer.
    I get good results from this. About 3 inches at about 100 yards.
    The cocking indicator pin hole extractor axis pin hole are very worn
    Does anybody know if the worn pin holes in the action affect accuracy? Has anyone ever tried to find out what the full accuracy potential of a MH is? Would bushing the pin and lever holes improve accuracy?
    You guys are the best.

    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.
