Playtime

[muffett.2008]

Took four SMLE's to the range to check out, a 1918 Enfield Sporter, a 1913 Lithgow, a 1916H Lithgow and a 1938 Lithgow.
Attachment 103123

Checked zero on each at 25m, only the '16H needed sight adjustment, then a five shot group out of each at a C type target at 100m.

First two groups were centre hold, both printed a bit high, the second two groups were a balance hold.....and dammit, printed low....Murphy still loves me


Yellow markers indicate 1918 Enfield in plastic stock.

Attachment 103127

Just goes to show, with all the supervising and running around I do, I still manage to scape up time for a shot now and then....even if they aren't that good.

Balance hold?

[22SqnRAE]

6 O'clock hold, but with the Figure 12, the aiming mark (or figure) is 'balanced' on the tip of the foresight blade.

That's an ugly fig 12.
