    Got the M69 Werder accurate

    Just back from my local Berlin (ex-US-Army) range and had a great day out with the M69 11.35mm Werder cavalry carbine. Tried it out with Hensel´s new mould, made according to the original drawings (with a hollow base). He also made me an expander as I couldn´t find one for 11.35mm which also works perfectly to compress the powder. Fully loaded, the cases look a lot better now and precision has improved greatly. The last three rounds showed that it was time to stop as things couldn´t get any better. So perseverance has paid off and I can now prove that the Werder does shoot accurately (a good marksman could certainly do a lot better).

    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.
