    Remington Model 1903A3

    Picked this Remington 03A3 up a few days ago. 9-43 barrel date. Looking forward to a range trip to see which handloads this rifle prefers. Should make a great rifle for the military matches at my club.

    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.

    Very nice, I like the C-stock! My Rem A3 is one of my favorite shooters.

    I'm not an experienced shooter, by any means, but I pulled off a 1 1/2 inch group with mine. Barrel gauges a little less than 1.

    Yeah, 100 yds off the bench. I think the ammo was Federal Gold.
