    Thumbs up water tightness 308 Lapua test

    I loaded a three times fired Lapua 308 case, in my M1Aicon, Springfield, rifle last night. Along with other dirty emptys, I placed it in the sink, soap and hot water covering all, left it overnight, this morning I pulled the bullet and powder from the round, finding powder dry and excellent to the match firing test, and I then fired the primer in the gun, and found to my surprise, it blasted full force when triggered. I guess this shows that the Varget is good, and the CCI primers are good, and the cases, which are Lapua 308, are really tight and well designed.

    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.
