    The #14 or Huns Head target.

    Seeing a post this morning reminded me of how the Hun's Head or #14 target can be used. At Bisley they set up a replica of a German trench parapet on Little Siberia @ 200 yards with loop holes and they show the #14 for three seconds every seven seconds at random loops and the only points are...

    Question on reproduction 03A4

    Without any background on the original poster he might want to spend a season on a standard rifle learning the ropes on the 03's. But then he might be a high master we don't know.

    Emergency fuel shut off '98 Plymouth Breeze?

    Thank you for all the replies. I think I will take my test lite with me on my dog walk later. I don't want to get 2 involved but I'm tired of looking at it.

    Emergency fuel shut off '98 Plymouth Breeze?

    Kid up the street rear ended another car and his air bags deployed. Now after pulling the fender off the wheel he has no fuel pressure. Recall seeing a Nissan Z with a pretty girl having this problem and the two driver pushed a reset in the trunk and she drove home. Anyone know about this? TIA

    Enfield Ad I found: Fake?

    I would like to find some more HXP and SA A80 brass. What do you do with your expended brass? I use the reasonably priced Lee four die set with collete neck sizing die and 4895 or 4064 powders. Cheers

    I shoot my L42A1s with surplus M80 ball for fun, I don't dwell on what it is worth, I paid about $850 each... Clean them correctly and drive on. Brilliant

    Enfield Ad I found: Fake?

    Roll your own. I would not use surplus in these valuable rifles. Do you use recycled oil in your car?

    Front sight just disappears in the black at 100M and the targets I used are small and don't help much but I like the challenge.

    Mosin Nagant 24" barrel and target crown ?

    I have talked to Savage a few time over the last ten years about other calibers and had the door shut each time. I wanted a 110 long action in 6.5X55 then 7.98X57. The best I could come up with was doing it myself and the Savage lends itself to that well. Here is a rifle I have been following...
