    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! ;)

    Tahr Pretty good I'd say. My 1944 SMLE shoots 3" at 100yds (3 shots) and it only has a 16.5" barrel. I'm not a long range shooter. I do have a Howa 308 and a Howa mini 223; I call my 223 the freezer...

    Even though I have just bought a Howa Lightweight 308 I still love using the old SMLE. I love the fact of taking a 76-year old rifle out hunting and seeing the puzzled looks on the young fulla's...

    Took the 106-year old girl out for a walk the other day. Been a heap of pigs out, but think the pig hunters beat me to them. Waited til dark, but no luck. Nice to take the rifle for another walk...
