'42 Lithgow Range Day

[krinko]

Took this one out with a selection of ammunition---DA MkVII, FNB 86 and PPU---and got the pictured results
Rifle is an unmodified 1942 Lithgow with a bit of use evident. A little soft at the crown, but it still has a shney bore.



First target----the Canadian DA 44


Second target---FNB 86


Third target---PPU awful boat-tails


At least it wasn't heaving them sideways.
Sorry to say I am all out of the Dominion .303 and I will be out of the FNB soon enough.
Targets are 100 yard, five-in-a-row with no peeking in between shots. A sort of quick slow fire?
Anyway, the moral of this story is: Don't mess with your rifle until you try different ammunition.
