    Moisin Nagant beats out expensive target rifles at 1,000 yds

    Here in Texas an informal 1,000 yd shooting competition is held every month where 5 random shooters are invited to the range to try their hand at hitting first, a 10" plate, then a 5" plate. No money or prizes, just the joy of receiving a "Texas Plinking" challenge coin. It's not always the shooter with the best scope and most expensive rifle that successfully hits the plate(s) as witnessed by this episode of "Texas Plinking".
    Enjoy!

    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 ...

    Very nice!!! Saturday I took my M39 out shooting.
    Satisfying, albeit not as good as I hoped (my fault).
    But, what a rifle and a calibre!

    Pretty darn good endorsement for a no-drill scope mount cantilevered back with a large, heavy scope on it.
    “There are invisible rulers who control the destinies of millions. It is not generally realized to what extent the words and actions of our most influential public men are dictated by shrewd persons operating behind the scenes.”

    Edward Bernays, 1928

    Much changes, much remains the same.
