Rifle condition for cast bullet matches

[finnmike]

Thanks for the replies and suggestions. I picked up two Remington 03A3s today at Puyallup; one a stone mint unissued with 2-groove bbl, and a very nice 2-groove with a gorgeous fiddleback stock as a shooter. Both have a MW of 0.5 and throats below 1. The leade on the "shooter" is sharp and I think it will shoot well. The unisssued one will be a safe queen. Pics will follow on a separate posting next week. Thanks again....
