Anyone use the .311 caliber?

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWW!!!
In facto, when I´m start this post, I´m not even in my dreams ever think I can see so beautiful pieces of art make with this old warriors!!!
STANDING UP APPLAUSE!!!

 

Outstanding customizations!!! This post, exceed my dreams!!!

 

I agree Marcos, that Von Gruff does some fantastic work, they are true works of art,
from some old warriors.

 

Thanks guy. Us old fellers need to stick together and I see no reason why what has worked so well since 1888 will not continue to work if I do my part. Even the Martini carbine in 303 I restored would still kill a deer out to as far as I could see to make a hit any day with just as much ease as the most modern rifle.
As bought with the blank I intended to use



I made a case to carry it (and ran out of the cover material which was no longer available so the patch over the rifle is all there was for the lid)

And a short vid of it having a run at 75yds with a plinking load of a 185gn cast bullet at about 1750 fps that would still take a deer to 150 yds if needed. Have faster loads but not sure they are needed.

 

Excellent Martini....!!!
Beautiful job also...

 

Beautiful rifles guys. Congrats..

.....haven't had a chance to shoot it yet, waiting on an ejector, but here's an early pic of my 7.65x53 before I welded the spoon bolt handle on.
It's a 1904 Verueiro action with a 1909 Argy barrel in an old Brno stock, the scope is only sitting there, I haven't made the mount yet.
