    You're not talking about hunting rifles are you ? The most likely gun to score well would be an old fullbore target rifle with aperture sights like the Omark 44 mentioned above or a Parker Hale. ...

    Back in BC days when Matt Grant and Tahr were young, it was standard to sight in at 25 paces. We did a lot more checking sights at the road end and campsite then. Two things that make a lot of...

    Ok. Alt strategy: Goal is instant usability to 400m with minimum cost. You won't have time or ammo supply to do trajectory verification. So use a light flat shooting bullet eg 140gr. 160+...

    In NZ in the 1970s, many 303s had a special small bridge screwed on which took parker hale rings. This is an authentic kiwi mod. Nowadays many of the PH rings have stripped their threads and the...

    It a "trusty " rifle so have you had it for a while and dont mind spending a few dollars on it? It looks like it hasn't had much use or the metalwork has been restored with nice phosphorising ?

    I went straight from a lee loader and hammer (just given it away with my .303) to a Co-Ax. A mate from the Warren Page era told me that was the best and I was fortunate enough to be able to afford...

    I've discovered that the grendel is a unique low velocity , medium BC round (very similar to the .303). I'd be surprised if common ballistic reticles are close enough past 300m. Would need a special...
