9.3x62

I funnily enough got my first 9.3x62 yesterday. Just a plain jane Zastava LK M70. I found it at a gunshow local to me for less than $400 USD. 2 tables over I was also delighted to find a West Germany era Schmidt & Bender 1.25-4x20 for 100 USD in good condition. What a good day. I intend to throw the S&B on this to try out, however I may move it to my 375

You must have had your lucky rabbits foot in your pocket that day. Two great buys at the same show!
 
I have been packing it every afternoon on my walks. I am really starting to love this rifle and plan on keeping it "as is" with open sights.

I am going to get a green fiber optic front sight for easier/faster target acquisition.

There's just a little to much naturally occurring background color to let me pick up the white front sight. :)

I use either red or orange fingernail polish to brighten up my front sights. White is not a good color in northern or high altitude locations.
 
If any of y'all happen to be around San Angelo, Texas I have 3 boxes of PPU 9.3x62 that I'll give you. I bought a drilling on gunbroker that listed the rifle barrel as 9.3x62, but it turned out to be a 38-55.

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .
