What do you get with an inverted bullet in the bore? Still newish? It sounds like a great find. I've just had a chance to shoot my P14 acquired 2 months ago and I'm liking it a great deal, nice to shoot, different from the smle in interesting ways, a keeper for sure. Its a winchester and been a target rifle,, ball burnished barrel too.
