Ugly bolt knob.

Zastava or one of its other names mk10,Interarms, Whitworth ect, or some thing built on a FN commercial action i believe Sako did build rifles on FN M98 actions before the L61.

At the local rifle range a few months ago a man had a collection of new Rigby Stalkers a 375 H&H , a 30/06 a 7x57 , & 9.3x62 . I collected his 375 brass as he did not reload for it. he was shooting it off sticks& left the Federal brass on the ground.

What an incredible collection of beautiful rifles, do you shoot any of them?

Yes Bob the 35 W is great , the big advantage of the 9.3x62 is factory ammo & rifles availability.

Is it a 303/25 epps on a p14 ?

Too much weight on the sled will damage stocks on hard recoiling rifles. especially ones with no clearance at the rear tang.

Bob i think you should get your chronograph fixed, my sons 257 Weatherby is struggling to do that .

Go with a Bell & Carlson great product for the money & devcon bed it.

I have a vanguard in 243 Ackley it makes the 243 Win a better cartridge much less case stretch & 90 g bullet at 3050 fps with a 24 inch bbl , but it does not impress old Bob at all.

Yes the Moisin is ugly but they worked & the Lee Endfield is sort of ugly & it was the bolt action greatest battle rifle of all time . To me the FN sporter M98 of the 1960s, WIN 70, Rem 700 & even the Weatherby mk5 are what rifles should look like

To me a Blazer R8 & the Beretta straight pull rifles are UGLY.

Nothing ugly about those Rem 700 ADLs i have 2 from 1967 & 1970 a 222 REM & a 308 WIN, THE 222 shoots 5 shot groups about .75 & the 308 about 1 moa 3 shot groups, floated bbls & lighter trigger springs.

Get a lighter spring & polish the surfaces = about 3 lbs, do not need to change the trigger, Wolff do a spring kit.

Finger in the trigger guard! When i was doing my basic training in the Australian Army mid 1960s if you put your finger in the trigger guard whilst carrying your rifle the drill instructor would hit it with his stick, you soon learnt not to do it ! i taught my kids not to put their finger in...
