    Pair of Ross Rifle projects

    Hi all,

    Thought I would show off a couple of projects I have been working on over the last wee while,

    First is a MKIII Ross that I received as a barreled action with no stock. It has been rebarreled in 30/303 and fitted to a Boyds uninletted stock. The scope mounting was a trial and error job as I didn't want to damage the action. Shoots well now and has taken a few deer.

    The second is a M-1910 Sporter in .280 Ross, this one has had the original stock refinished, checkering recut, and the metalwork all reblued. This has been a labour getting it to the point I can shoot it. .287 projectiles from Woodleigh in OZ, brass resized from .375 Ruger. Going to work up the load using 7X64S&H data as a base as they have similar case capacity and size.
