    Dora is accurate!

    Installed the Lane sight and went back to working on loads and I have several sub 2MOA groups with Varget and Sierra 180 pro hunters. I had several sub 2MOA groups with AA2520 as well last weekend. Both powders are showing between 2340 and 2400 on the Crony.

    I also made a huge mistake, one I should have known better than to do. I installed a 35 thou taller front sight, AND I added 3 lbs of pressure at the tip. I am now hitting 4 MOA low where I was 8 MOA high.

    I changed two things at once But I don't care at the moment, I am just a happy man. I'll post some pictures of Dora now that she has all her parts installed.

    Maybe I'll look at building a No 4T next. Seems everyone else is...

    Thanks you to everyone for your guidance, all traces of Bubba are gone, and Dora shoots well to boot.

    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.
