No 1 Mk III* HB Range Debut

[xa-coupe]

Took the No1 MkIII* HB that have I desporterised out today for it's debut. Probably shouldn't have bothered. Felt like ca@p and there was a fair (cold ) breeze blowing alternately across the range ar directly at me making my eyes water.
I shot some average to poor groups. The the best I managed was probably 2-3inches and the worst... about 6 inches. I need to go again when both the weather and I are in a better state.
My little collection ( didn't fire the No4, that's how much of a bad mood I was in ! ) got heaps of comments. It's amazing how many people float over to have a look and a chat.


I might prepare a few changes before the next trip. I will find the spring that goes under the nose cap, get another nose cap and be prepared to hone it out a little and triple check the bedding to make sure it's all okay. It showed potential to be a nice and accurate rifle. I will make sure it isn't me before making any changes and the good thing about these is that I can do the changes at the range and see straight away if the change makes any difference.
