This pic is sideways but is the last shot I made. The one below it is the previous shot that I did the final adjustment from.

I had a Mk I scope a few years ago and it was pure junk. Even had Wheatley work on it to no avail. I found a MK II repop this year and thought I'd give it a go. It was a 60 round piece of work, I...

Let me assure you Warren that you are an indispensable person on this space in time.

I can attest to the above being a fact - and it does not take but a small bit of tightening to wreck one. Ask...

Thank you surpmil - I suspect that I was doing as you describe and not getting very far! My friend Warren is going to reset the scope up for me and then I'll go out with an assistant to get it on...

paulseamus - maybe you should reread my post - I never even remotely suggested that Mr, Laidler could not write nor did I suggest that he did not know what he was talking about or how to communicate...

If you are addressing me I'm not sure I understand what is being said. I understand the "if he stuffs something" part. And yeah I suppose that could happen. I've only owned a few hundred different...

Be interesting to see what you Brits think of it. Parker Hale mounts?

At $30 a copy I think I'll continue to muddle around - dang Peter I hope you are getting a share of those proceeds!!

Where would one get a copy of this booklet? He asked curiously - - -

RobD - I had thought about that one. Except I have not removed the rear iron sight and the bolt will not come out with the scope and mount still affixed to the rifle.

I realize I was incredibly unclear about what I was asking. I understand the windage and elevation MOA settings once the scope's crosshairs are on target. And they make perfect sense to me. I was...

BTW - I had done that before - I reckon I just did not imagine there not being "clicks" to measure the movement by. Trial and error I suppose - perhaps a degree ring to slip over the drum would help...

I was being a bit lazy Doug - sorry for that - will do -

Be well

I simply let the rifle cool a bit and run a .30 caliber cleaning rod down down the bore from the muzzle, with a brass cleaning end on it, with a patch on it. Pushes it right out. But then again I've...

At the range yesterday, my first since receiving this scope, I really struggled with getting it on target. I am so used to having 1/4" moa clicks to refer to when making adjustments the lack of them...

I don't know about "Taiwan junk" as my aftermarket mount fits incredibly well. I can take it off and put it back on with no change in POI. And I've removed the scope from the rings and replaced it...

Is someone saying that the screws on British Enfields should not be all buggered up? I'll be darned - - :madsmile:

Alabama weather is not something to brag on. Hot, humid, tornadoes, rain like a cow urinating on a flat rock, telephone poles fall over from the unstable ground, and vetch. Wonderful people though!

In the June/July edition of the magazine they had a fine article on the American Enfield rifle. Then on the last page of the article, page 43, they post a picture of an American unit firing No1 Mk3s....

Yep slugging the barrel. I did not know you could still reline barrels. I have not seen it done for years and then only by some very competent, and expensive, gunsmiths.

And the "jump" for some...

Yes - that is what is being talked about is that a longer place of contact makes up for a worn out barrel. And at risk of beating a dead horse - once a barrel is worn to the point of not fully...

What tbone said +1

If you read the articles and look at the photos you'll see that there is a spring involved. If your son's trigger is doing what you say it is then it is a dangerous trigger that I would think is...

I'd have to question the validity of rifling that is made for flat based bullets. Rifling does not care what goes down it, only that it fits correctly. My 44 (T) shoots Hornady 174 grn Boat tail...

If you follow Mr. Laidler's directions it will pass the test. And it sounds harder than it really is. Just takes patience.
