    I'm not sure if the wood is walnut and there's sod all blueing left; but my old 1944 SMLE is now sporting a new Nikon 2-7x Prostaff scope. I've had this rifle since I was about 18 and still love...

    ChrisW liked post by Marty Henry On thread : Does a bull barrel help reduce throat erosion?
    Chris is right as well. Shooting a hot barrel will help kill it as you have to factor friction into the wear as well. Interestingly I believe copper jackets cause more wear than steel jackets do,...

    ChrisW liked post by Max Headroom On thread : Does a bull barrel help reduce throat erosion?
    I wonder if he thought the bull barrel would act as a kind of heat sink, and greatly delay the temp rise in the area of the throat.

    You can lock the bolt in the closed position with the safety which will achieve the same result and be less of a pointless exercise

    Me three except that I'm a bit slower and it took nearly 40 years to make the switch. I'm now with the whole rest of the entire world that uses a safety as it was intended . . . .
