you might also think about a trigger job. I have the ruger sr1911 and now shooting any other pistol is just no good.

Going to try some Sierra .311 that's what I measured the bore at. Have to find them first though. And shoot out enough ppu to get brass lol

Yes, waiting to buy a big lathe until I build my shop. I got that thing for nothing and you can do this kind of work on it just have to go slow. Actually a very precise lathe.

This is true, at least with this I can use it for cheap plinking.

I have seen a lot of people doing that, but I wanted to avoid changing the barrel if possible. For all that I would have went with a 700 build.

That's cool. I looked them up. Says you need a gunsmith to fit the extractor. I wounded if I would be able to do it

Thanks, Hopefully I can get sub moa with it, but even in a worst case. It is plenty accurate for hunting.

I really like the stock, but the one I got was inleted off to the left. It took all of extra work to correct this. Seems to be an uncommon problem, so no big deal. Fixed now

I have one that I put away as a collector. It is a "rare " Mosin in perfect condition. But other then that, is say these builds are acceptable. Thanks for checking it out

Im in the middle of sporterizing one. should finish by the end of next week. Will post a thread with pics. I haven't shot it yet so Im not sure what ammo it likes. I will have to break out the calipers and measure the muzzle to see what it comes out to. I purchased some ppu match ammo so I will...

Want to try and load for 7.62x54. Anyone having good results? looking for some specifics. What bullet, diameter, weight, powder, primer etc.

I was going to buy the 700 from dicks sporting goods and true and rebarrel it, but I just don't feel like spending the money right now. in total to build the 700 I was going to it would have cost about 1200 or more not including glass. I love the gun to and plan to buy more. but with a rock...
