My 03A4 replica
all vintage parts and pieces with exception of sling, it is a recreation, but all else from forties, started with a remington 1903A3, and a new still in cosmo barrel



thing really shoots well also, and darn fun to put together

Very Nice!

Thanks,
next thing will be to have it all parkerized, and i might have the stock cartouches applied, the man that does it will also stamp in side the barrel channel that this is a repro, which of course it is and i have not a problem with that.......

Very nice. I love old school sniper rifles.

Nice rifle. I acquiered a Gibbs 1903A4 with the M73B1 small scope. It is a challange to shoot and a lot of fun. It wasn't that big of adjustment, since I shoot my Model 70 Targets with Unertal scopes out to 750-Yards. My upcomming project is to zero the 1903A4 for 500-Yards and shoot the steel at that distance with the small scope.

went to range today and after doing fifty rounds for break in and getting windage set up i went 25-50 then to 100 yards

not at all unhappy, and i am a terrible bench shooter, can not get comfortable, can not get stock in shoulder, just akward as hell... do not know what to do with left hand
but anyway this thing shoots!!!!

the external windage adj is touchy and easy to go too far, i did

this is actually four rounds

the little white circle is a pastey , since the black is 1 1/2 moa, i needed the white to put cross hair on

think i have a shooter!!!!, but the steel but plate in bench kicked my ass

If you didn't like the way that kicked try it with an "S" stock. You'll hate that.

Beautiful rifle and obviously a great shooter by the way. Congratulations!!

Nice shooting, regardless of what rifle.

thanks for the compliment, however it was more rifle than me, i am not comfortable shooting from a bench, like to get that down, However the thing does shoot, i was using GI case 168g hpbt smk imr 4064 and winchester primers,,, plan on shooting this thing at the cmp eastern sniper match

got to learn the scope, started at mechanical zero and put on 21 clicks to hold that group, and this is 100 yards, got to work it out to 600 yards

You are going to run out of clicks!
