So I finally got my late-war mismatched Czech icon

made K98

out to the range to see how she shoots. Usually when I zero a rifle I set it in a lead sled, but since I wasn't taking it seriously this time I just set it on a sand bag. I only fired at 25yards with 196gr reloads to try and get a rough zero, expecting that I was going to have to do some work to get the windage right. Especially since I kinda rushed my shots. Nope, it was almost dead on! At least good enough to take my last 10 rounds and put them on a 6" target at 100 yards with ease.

Pretty happy overall... Next time I go out I'll fine tune my zero.

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.

good for you bloke would be nice to see some groups of the rifle.
I noticed with the milsurps more obviously shooting my "T" that it does not really like rests but being shot from the sling and naturally supported 2 very distinct groups.
