I just happened to think that I took another photo of the old IM rifle the other day. Here in the hands of the little fellow (Travis Jordan) that is the range caretaker at the X Ring Custom rifle...

Yes, John, I got the message yesterday. Will respond as time allows. I've a few more photos, but the bulk of what I have can be found somewhere on this site. The Serial # is 1,257,681 and is one...

36339I've had this old 1 in 12" Winchester barreled Springfield International around for years and had never shot it. It did have some history, and is documented, but I just could not stand it...

All the .17 ARs that I made used stainless barrels. I really loved the little .17s, but kept none. As I write this I have no recollection of the .17 barrel makers, but will have it written down on...

I made several in .17 Remington. Quite accurate, but not as quiet as I wanted.

Had what is now called the Winschutz out today for a little session with a fellow that loves smallbore. This little rifle is a real shooter. I have photos and will try to get them up tomorrow. I...

Just threw that out there as an alternative, Barretcreek. I had no 7.5 Swiss, but lotsa .284 from the 6.5X.284 dayz. They seemed to work well. The rifle and load completely surprised me. The...

Rick,

I can tell you what cooks in my K31 rifles. With this load, the rifles shoot to point of aim.

Cases are .284 Winchester formed to 7.5X55 and, as I recall, trimmed to length. Load being...

Just recently assembled a new No4 Mk1 with a barrel forwarded by Criterion. The barrel fit an old 1943 BSA action, so the action and basic parts were freshly Parkerized. The barrel was left in the...

There should be plenty of loose M-70 blocks around. The hole spacing might be the same between the O and E and one of the M-70 blocks, but I understand those original blocks are scarce. A search...

I machine rest tested a slug of .45 ammo for a friend years ago. This included handloads and military ball. I had no real interest in the outcome of the test, but did chamber a 1911 length barrel...

I would love to see the video, Chris. About the only video I have of the C-77 was when a Army fella was here to test a rifle. This guy was good! Slow fire at 500 yards into about a two inch...

You just never visited my basement, Chris. When I would go to Ottawa, several cases would be waiting. When my friends came South, they knew the entry fee.:) My Grandchillens will have to work hard...

Hello, Chris. The Canadian C-77 62 grain ammo was superb in anything. Not sure about the current C-77, but in the old dayz that M-855 type ammo was excellent.

I've played with a lot of bullets...

I'm in the midst of putting together a No 4 with a new barrel. The stocking is slowing things down a bit, as I've not stocked a standard No 4 since getting one ready for the 100th Canadian Nationals...

Had a better peek at the serial on the ring base. Looks like 3,7XX,XXX. Surprised me that it took a photo to notice it.

Seeing this thread reminded me that I had an M14 AWC mount, with rings and M-84 scope. I thought a serial number from an original M1C might still be stamped on the ring base. What I found...

These parts are certainly not necessary for everyone, but can sure save the old nose. They will also keep you from wrecking a good prone score. It appears that Darreld has had that pleasure.

Yes, this rifle is documented, Cosine. Sure would love to have the complete history on it. I do know that it was the property of the winner of the Marine Corp. Cup in 1940, but little else.

I'm...

I'm still waiting for this old klunk to become a rarity. It may well have to become a part of my estate.:icon_lol:

I forgot to mention that the old Anschutz/52Winchester shoots bug holes. Much better than I expected!

I hope you are right, Ridgerunner. If so, it should make a great squirrel rifle.

The Anschutz had a pitted barrel. The 1938 dated 52 barrel had been in the archives for years. An F. K. "Red"...

How about Winschutz?

I have a brand spankin' A. J. Parker. Don't know the number without going to the books, but a quality sight. Check your PM's.

These photos are great. One a 1970 Palma (E329) and the other an L39 (A958). Not trying to beat you to death, but 75% isn't a good place to be when you are talking that kind of money. You can...
