    Oh Cr*p

    Think I already know the answer to what I am asking see the pics of my T's throat & Brl the case neck portion of the chamber is on the Rt my guess is the brl is shagged. I cannot remember if it is the original brl 1944 may have a look later on
    I have gone through scrubbed the bore, there is a fair amount of carbon all along the lands (used copper brush, one shot & Iosso paste) still got a ways to go yet...............!!!
    I am sorta over this thing as it has been a constant pain in the rectum given it cost a friendship (Told it was schmicko rifle) it was not right when I got it as the draws were bashed to hell and the whole receiver rocked in the fore stock. (since rectified at a fair cost)

    And now it appears the throat is cactus-dilecti and the brl, I have a reasonable selection of barrels but finding a gunny who can do the job correctly is the issue. I was thinking of Beaton fire arms in Perth as Doug Barnes is not longer taking on any work due to ill health. Any West Au members had T work done at Beatons. If it was a bog standard No.4 I have a gunny here that can do the job but T's are somewhat different. TIA

    Pics 1&2 carbon, 3&4 throat just past neck chamber, 5 fire cracking
