Peter, as this is my first post, I wish to thank you for all your articles and your book. As an Enfield service rifle shooter and enthusiast, your knowledge offered is gold. But I must ask you about the second last paragraph in "An armourer's perspective" regarding new barrel alignment with scope / pads - re a method that could and did cure it. What was that method?
I am currently building up a clone of an L42A1 (wish I could afford a real one) and realize that it won't affect me as I will machine the pads ala H&H. Just want to know what your method was. Thanks again.
