    Hi Patrick,

    hope you had a good competition at Alsfeld? Want to say thank you for your advices on the 96/11. It works great, the groups are now in the bull.

    Thank you.

    Regards,

    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.

    Thanks for the good wishes, but results were moderate, to put it politely.
    Still, this coming Saturday is BPCR-day, so at least I can make some smoke.

    Glad to hear your 96/11 is now behaving as it should. It's nice to know that some advice is actually useful. Do you use the GP11 surplus ammo? I think that anyone who can beat the accuracy of GP11 can consider himself an expert reloader, and for the present price of a 470 round pack you can't even get the components. Every pack I have seen offered is dated 1979, so I suspect the Swissicon military have had a clear out of packs that had passed the official "bang by" date. Supermarkets would say: Buy now while stocks last! But a Swiss friend thinks they still have billions of rounds left, so that should be enough for me!

    Good shooting!

    Patrick

    Hello Patrick,

    Yes i use the GP11 Ammo it is like you said there is no way to get cheaper and better ammo than this. Thats good that there is more of this excellent ammo. My shooting at the LM ZG1 yesterday wasn`t the best had a problem with the scope but the fun was great. So i wish you good luck for the Black Powder shooting.
    Hope to hear from You

    Best Regards

    Gunner
