I must clear up re the hagn, I do not own it anymore. It was chambered in a 6.5 cal using a 204 case. My best shot with it was on a wallaby at 328 yrds in the head. Shear fluke, but I did shoot a lot...

Greetings, It never ceases to amaze me how much joy there is to be gained just faffing around with old rifles (and shotguns). For us older chaps it keeps our minds active if not our bodies. Years...

So here is something a bit different, spotted in a LGS and added to the rustoration pile (although this one is in very nice condition, the takedown screw is bruised and the barrel is a wee bit dark)....

I really should have a good look in my rifle cupboard to see what has lost its shine and could be turned into something more interesting. Shouldn't dally too much either as 75th birthday is only a...

grandpamac, I have a citadel martini rebarrelled in 38/55 with a Tony Hawkins barrel, I'm not allowed to use it in open sights competitions at my local club anymore, it's too accurate.
