56906 Mate on the original condition scope I’m pretty certain as that’s what’s listed on its case an I’m positive they matched up, I’m away for work currently but can’t check

Very Valid “PROMO”
My reasoning for having 2 scopes as the rebuilt one was in pretty poor condition
When I got my hands on it so the numbers were taken with corrosion etc this was rebuilt to be a...
Afternoon all,
Long time since I’ve posted I’ve got a HT sniper I’m possibly looking to off load purely because life has decided to go a little sideways.
The rifle is a high mount with 2...
The rear mount looks as though its been taken to with an angle grinder to remove it from the original rifle back when ever it was done so the partial dovetail has been cut through/off.
Bit of an update of late, this one is back to functioning order which is all I was wanting as it will be actively used on the rifle so she’s had a protective coating applied for the interim to look...
Peter, it isn't as bad as it sounds all points of water ingress were plugged up and sealed with blu-Tac (the white substance in some of the pics) and the rear wasn't under water either as I wasn't...
Im a sucker for PH Aperture sights (any for that matter as long as its direct Bolt on stuff with no mods to the rifle) have 3x PH5A 1x AGP Plus 5 also. Heap of adjustable Iris's
Kinda fell down...
Yeh its a product called "Rust Bucket"
I've plugged and sealed everything up with blue tac before I put her in.
Max paranoia that's if stuff something up so was pretty cautious about it.

Well just got back from site to some odds and ends in the mail.
As noted from the initial pics in the other thread the scope is no beauty queen.
The "smudge" in the lense is a chipped lense...
Id imagine your correct the wood is dated 1913 the rifle 1916
however i did fail to upload one reasonably important pic (even in my initial "Do i have a HT thread") so likely having had the mis...
Ive just Picked up what id call a reasonably tidy Savage 2 groove no4 Mk1 fo $480AUD
To the point is i had the ability to own more on my lisence (going for 3x .303s currently which is apparently...
Good evening all (here in Australia),
I'm on night shift so have time on my hands to troll the web and pester you Knowledge banks with Newbie Questions (I have searched "H" rifles with the search...
Good day all,

have flicked off a few emails to a few places around the world one gen in Australia on the east coast also.
Hope fully get a bite from one of them.
Mate thats thoroughly impressive considering what it started as, im not as brave as you to pull her down but it does need something done and its in a pretty average state so nothing to be lost (i...
Best pics of have of the scope until i get it in hand physically, As mentioned shes not perfect and a little rough but ill still be hunting a better condition one in the meantime also.
how poor of...
I'm back on site soon so I'll try and grab the eBay pics of the scope and chuck them up.
The scope isn't perfect but she will do I'll have a crack of uploading the eBay pics from my iPhone.

FYI the old girl now has a set of eyes thanks to the 3 Gents in here who took the time to give me a heads up as where a scope was available, she's not perfect but she's a genuine high mount and its a...
Just on the "high mount/Low Mount" are they compatible after chatting with Ian he stated that mine is a high mount?
Pardon the ignorance but been running from my handset the last few days and...
Thank you for pointing that out mate I appreciate it.
Also to the lads mentioning the EBay scope also.
And down the financial rabbit hole I go!
Lobbed bids on line at one scope and just left a...
Pitting is in the inside of the barrel mate about 1/2 to 2/3 of the way up.
All going to plan I have no intention of molesting the rifle irreversibly.
How ever I do believe it should be shot and...
Not to my knowledge.
Was told that was a ring in.
Was advised to just go get an unmarked/numbered one and run with that.
Also just emailed off to a certain gentleman who's written a well known book on them and he replied and confirmed the serial number on it is listed in his book.
He also said having the volley...
