Well
I was lucky and scored 2 mosin m91/30 that have matching numbers, Mint crowns and perfect bores.... BUT i cannot see iron sights worth a damm.....So I put a scout scope mount on one with an NC star 4 power LER scope, and being a Cheap SOB i made a cheek riser from 2 layers of waterpipe insulation and a velcro wrap around camo buttstock ammo holder! ITS fun and useful! and looks like hell!
now on the the fun! using a lee 185gr gascheck 303 mold dropping @.315 and ACWW using Alox thinned 25% with mineral spirits and one teaspoon of JPW tumble lubed said boolits and loaded in win brass over 24.0 grains of ACCURATE ARMS 5744 I shot THree different 5 shot groups today All of them are under 1/2 a dime @ 50 yards!!!!
people@ the range today could not believe it! I can Squirrel hunt with IT!
