I've got a springbok and gemsbok European mount that the horns are a bit loose. Does anyone have recommendations for making the fit a bit tighter without damaging the horn by shoving it over something oversized? I was thinking about tissue paper inside the hollow horn. Thanks in advance!

Tissue paper soaked in wood glue. That's what an old forester here uses on his moufflon mounts.

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 .
