My 1916 girl regularly shot like this when I sighted it in with PPU 150's . I think it all comes down to how poked the barrel is. Also; I used a 3-9x scope. My eyes aren't good enough for irons or...

grandpamac My mate in Aussie just sent me this. It's not very high resolution, but interesting. I didn't know they re-barrelled .303s to .375? 211058

Sidetrack Thanks for the kind words. As an aside; I see you live down the Catlins. Used to visit the Catlins twice a year when I was doing nature photography. Very nearly moved there! :)

I've just got a bog standard Howa Mini. Not sure of the weight, but I do know that losing 10ks off my belly would make it seem lighter! ;)
