Rock-ola week

**ScottR** · 09-02-2009 06:14 PM

I have a Import marked 6mil. Rock-ola, in a repo paratrooper stock. I took two other carbines beside the Rock-ola to the range a few days ago.
This 5-shot group is from the Rock-ola, 25yds. I realize luck was envolved with a little bit of skill. Little over 1/2 inch.

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Do they a rifle range, say 100/200 yards? Nice 25 yard group. I would be interested in seeing what it can do reaching out a bit further.

**ScottR** · 09-03-2009 01:03 AM

Jim, can do 100yds, I do not have a proper size 100yd target. A good sight picture is a must at that range. Will post pics next time to the range.

I'm guessing it will be about 3" at 100 yards with that good at 25 yards.

**painter777** · 09-03-2009 08:54 AM

I was guessing 3" pattern also........If Scott's that steady again!!

Excellent! All you need is a couple of clicks left. Technically, that group extended out to 100 would still only be about 2", but given increased operator error at longer distance, you'll probably get 3"+ as they say. That is excellent targeting and shooting with a carbine. What ammo are you using?

**ScottR** · 09-03-2009 02:13 PM

The ammo came from "ammo to go". I believe it was made by D&S, Lake City brass, mixed years, 110 fmj, I do not know the brand name of the components. Bought in 06 I believe.

The first time I took my built up parts gun IBM to the range...I shot a five shot100 yd. 1 & 3/8ths inch group with Winchester white box ammo...I sent that target to the guy that built the carbine... The rest of the groups ran in the 3 inch range from that box.. That was about twelve years ago when I could still see ...Now I feel really happy if I get a 3 inch group once and a while with my best hand load.. Now that I think back on it.. I'll bet he didn't believe it.. I know I hardly can! He probably thought I meant 50yds...
