    Another 'not exactly Enfield, but......

    Some time ago I suggested replacing No32 scope clicker plungers with 5mm ball bearings. The person I suggested it to immediately came up trumps with said balls......, as opposed to my old balls if you'll excuse the pun!

    Who was it? and I need some myself now!

    That reminds me, I have completed the next two parts for a No32 scope rebuild too!

    Peter,
    In a pinch you might try T size shot, used for waterfowling(steel). I believe these are 5mm or very near. I'm not sure of their concentricity, but they might be good enough to serve your purpose. They do kill geese at a good range! I'm looking forward to the next installments of No32 scope restoration.

    Thanks all. Got a load of 5mm/.2" balls from that well know auction site
