Clintonhater, I wonder if you have a 17A XNA? Check out the ebay link above from Johnny P.

Thanks you for your responses!

I did some more googling the Lymans 17A XNB and was presented with two different types, both saying they're the 1903A3.

The first has a keyed mount, and the...

Can I use the Lyman 17A XNB Globe sight on the front of a 1903A3 with the stock rear peeps?

Lyman's customer service was helpful and dug up the part number and let me know it's been obsolete for a...

Friend's father passed and he offered a coffee can of assorted ammunition.

I accepted this and a box of modern .30 carbine, turned down the rest as I've spent my time decommissioning others ammo...

Here are the contents of the box. Reloaded who knows how long ago and some are color coded.

Back when corrosive primers were a selling point. Be fun to shoot a box or two!

Appreciate your time, Thanks.

For an '03-a3 Remington, sn: 4157764. Thanks for looking!

I bought the rifle from a gentleman in Texas, whom I believe shot a lot, service rifle perhaps. And I think he was said he could make no claims for accuracy.

The barrel suffered throat errosion...

I was reading the 2020 CMP Games rules concerning replacement barrels, and they're fine. Figured since I bought it from them.

But, while reading through the rules I came across this:

4.2...

It seems to go with so many things doesn't it.

Thanks for the interesting bayonet link, I have it book marked.

How sweet one of the earliest leather sheaths must have been before time took its...

Had it down to $245 before yanking it as I kinda like that big old thing. This old jarhead could hold down a hallway with it on the end of my 03a3!

Anyways back to reality. What's the story on...

Thanks again. I didn't have a clue about it originally being shiny.

It's nice, I picked it after I was offered a 1903 with a Santa Fe stamped receiver and the bayonet. Receiver looked awful, and...

Thank you for your feedback, then in your opinion would $275 be a fair price for both parties?

I would value opinions and estimates on this bayonet. I need to buy a new barrel and have it installed on my 03A3. My good wife say Christmas is over, so...

It has a blackish finish on the blade...

I can see where a spark would be an unwelcome surprise. Totally agree with the humidity level of the house, but it's usually not a problem.

It was a problem yesterday though, found flakes of...

Nice solution nfle, worked perfectly!

Thanks,

I'm pouring powder today with an older Pact auto-dispenser and e-scale, and the static electricity is terrible. Powder clinging to things in gravity defying directions, makes me doubt that all the...

How about your case's trim-to length's tolerances? I'm going for 2.485" and have been only proceeding with what I could hold to +.002/-.000. Wondering if that's wasteful or meaningful? They all pass...

I appreciate the guidance. So is the 30-06 repackaged into CMP boxes a few years back M2? I'll take a bit of that to the range too, the worst that could happen is I get some more brass for loading....

No I don't, although my buddies a member and we shoot there frequently. Maybe I'll talk to him, it'd good fun with these old battle rifles. Be fun to be able to take a hundred year old rifle...

Thanks, had it for years, I didn't know about the updates though. Planned on getting my loads from that manual for their #2130 when I had an idea of the FPS. They have load data for their 150gr with...

I've had them for a bit, so don't let my old inventory reflect any current availability. They're Sierra 150gr. Spitzer, flat based, #2130 Pro Hunter and have a lead tip. I may have had them for six...

Thanks Tuna, then I have the components already. Is there a fps range the 1917 likes, or is it pretty much the same as the M1?

I have an M1917 Winchester VFW return that's been re-barreled with a J A replacement barrel. It's the 2 land and groove barrel, and is new old stock. Also have a bit of '68 LC brass that's currently...
