    M1917 Eddystone Range Day

    I could not get good results at 100 yards, so I moved out to 200 yards. Here is a pic of the 15 round group at 200 yds:




    Nice mild day in the forest. Light wind. 78 degrees. 3800' elevation.

    Shot from the tripod in the forest.

    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. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    One would expect an even tighter grouping from a bench with a proper set up front rest, nice looking rifle.

    Thanks for looking. I try to keep it simple at the forest range and not haul the bench out there, though I have done it in the past. So I handicap my results if I shoot off hand or from the tripod.
