Your rifle is not listed on SRS. But it is very close to a block of National Match rifles. It is possible that it was originally a NM rifle that was used in matches. After the matches the rifles...
Duggaboy, I thought that you would be happy with it. I see you backed it off to 56 grs. I have tried to back it off to as little as 54 grs. but any lower then that you really start to see a larger...
Duggaaboy, H4350 is an excellent powder for the Springfield 30-06 but usually only REALLY shines with 180 and above bullets. H4350 works especially well with heavy bullets out to 1000 yards. But...

I read that article also. But he REALLY 'goes the long way around the barn' to make it. I have made several and have a way of doing it that is a lot easier. Read my posts under (22 by Niedner) on...
You can get liners ( Redman makes them) from Brownells in Iowa. They have a web site. The liners are cheap about $30 each. But there are other makers of liners. Parker Hale used to make a real...
There should be no argument that the early single heat treated receivers are not as safe to shoot as the later receivers. I too have seen pictures of blown up single heat treated rifles and yes it...
I believe your question was about using drill rifle receivers. But some how you got answers about the barrels??? As to the receivers, I have used two, one a high number N.S. receiver & one...
There are several barrel makers that will make a good 22 barrel for the Springfield type rifles. But they charge about $350 plus for the barrel, another $200 for installing, cutting the extractor...
Yes, it can be done. I have a couple of rifles that I made using M2 barrels and M2 bolts with 30-06 receivers. I have just completed two more rifles using 30-06 barrels relined to .22 LR. with...
Pat, The 1903shooter that posted this message is not me. He registered & used my old CSP name when CSP switched over to M.S.C.F. I had to change mine to "Da CSP 1903shooter". But Nice hearing...
One thing that I noticed in your picture is that your rifle has a blued bolt sleeve and a reverse safety. I believe those parts are a little early for your rifle. They quit using reverse safeties...
Sounds like you have an Artillery spotting scope. They were not made to be used as rifle scopes. That is why they do not have any adjustments and without any aqy to adjust the windage and elevation...
Mike, They will work, BUT you will have to modify the A3 handguard. The A3 hand guard is too long for the milled collar. You'll have to shorten the A3 hand guard about an 1/8th to 1/4 inch at the...
