    "Shoot to Live" Though long out of print....

    ...and a bit hard to find about the best manual on basic rifle handling and shooting in general and the No.4 Enfield in particular I've seen. Well worth the search. It was used by the Canadian military to help train their firearms instructors. The full title "Shoot to Live" Presenting the...

    And then it became a Mauser scout

    Re: And then it became a Mauser scout Very nice looking Mauser. Just a thought. How is mounting a scope going to effect loading with stripper clips? Never mind I reread and see you plan to use a forward mounted "Scout Scope" so not an issue.

    Re: Ishapore 2A1, project start. A very good reference on accurizing a Lee-Enfield. http://www.enfieldresource.com/2012-complete-book-lee-enfield-accurizing Well worth the price.

    need a new trigger

    Re: need a new trigger The Timney is adjustable but I doubt you will need to. I believe the Rifle Basix is adjustable as well.

    BMW vs Corvette

    Re: BMW vs Corvette I'd take a late model Mustang Cobra over a late model Vette any day. As for Subaru I have seen quite a few who have underestimated and dissed a STI live to eat their words.

    need a new trigger

    Re: need a new trigger Timney here as well but from what I've read you can't go wrong with the Rifle Basix. Both companies seem to offer great trigger at a good price. I got the one that offered the best price at the time of purchase.

    Right-handed rifle, Left-eye dominant

    Re: Right-handed rifle, Left-eye dominant I had this problem also. Participating in competitive archery shooting with all the associated practice and being to cheap to buy new equipment both came together to over time remedy the problem. I can now aim quite well with both eyes open using my...

    Why not the Winchester model 70

    Re: Why not the Winchester model 70 Nothing wrong with the push feed M70s ether as far as I can see. Mine has been rock solid and absolutely reliable for almost 30 years of hard use. I can't say the same about some of the various 700s I've owned or been around.

    Enfields!

    Re: Enfields! I could never figure out why people hack up an Enfield. They are not particularly heavy, they at least for me handle very nicely, point quite naturally and look darn good in their full military glory. My No.4 was a nightmare when I first got it. Having said all that the above...

    please help with choice between 3 backpacks

    Re: please help with choice between 3 backpacks Sorry. Knowing what it will be used for is kind of important. It will be used as a day pack for hiking and hunting. I have arthritis in the vertebrae in my neck so I need the pack that distributes the load better than cheaper packs do but I...

    why not? pull through cleaning 'rods'

    Re: why not? pull through cleaning 'rods' Pull trough's were used during ww2 and before. From what I've read they did more damage over time than leaving the rifle dirty. Usually worn muzzles due to incorrect use.

    Which do you prefer FL or Neck sizing?

    Re: Which do you prefer FL or Neck sizing? A lot depends on the rifle. If I were to full liength size the cases for my Enfield it would cut case life in half.

    A question for BasraBoy

    Hello I read in another post that you beded your No.4t clone with epoxy at the action. Just to clear this up for me. Is the barrel free floated the whole length? I am going to bed my Long Branch no.4 with epoxy and was thinking about free flouting the barrel the full length except for at the...
