    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.

    A square 10.
    One question, can you get your Nylon 66 to shoot accurately. I have one with a scope and it is OK but far from good. I believe it is because of the receiver cover and the way it attaches, maybe I am wrong? I think the metal cover has movement and as far as I can see nothing can be done to improve it. My old Cooey single shot will outshoot it any day of the week.
    Why use a 50 pound bomb when a 500 pound bomb will do?

    I shoot mine with iron sights only and it will do golf balls at whatever range I can see them.

    That's a great bunch of rifles you have there. You can give me any one you want, I'm not picky.

    I hope you post how it works as I do think the metal receiver cover has movement and prevents it from being really accurate. Getting old so the iron sight issue is a problem, maybe I will have to wear a corrective lens to compensate if I want to use iron sights. Don't get me wrong it will shoot quite well, the problem to me seems to be shot to shot are rarely in the same spot, close but we all know close only counts in Horseshoes and Handgrenades! We enjoy shooting at 100 yards and as I said my old Cooey is super accurate at that distance with a very old Weaver 4X scope.
    Why use a 50 pound bomb when a 500 pound bomb will do?

    You are my hero. Are you adopting? I had no idea the variety of the older .22 rifles that were out there until I found this forum. This is going to cost me money...
