The enfield is heavier, but a more accurate rifle. I had one bbl'd in 308 . The only bolt action ( Mil surplus era) that was as accurate was a 8mm FN Mauser. I know guys in NE that use the .303 enfields for taking deer, consistently. The down side of an enfield is the extractor, AND weight. A springfield 03 is so easy to work on parts / acc and weight wise, it would be my choice, after an 8mm mauser.

BobbyZ's the enfield guy, get with him

Love my 03 and wouldn't trade it for an ugly british club for all the tea at Pacific Ocean market. Never shot a Mauser either, but I hear those can kick like a mule. The 03 is bad enough after a couple hours of shooting, with the steel butt plate and all...

Speaking of BobbyZ.. WTF is he up to? Hopefully everything is going well with him.

Good- aloe helps heal it more quickly.

Perhaps I'll try and get a tumbler this weekend..... I'm sure those shells feel quite neglected and that's really not fair to treat them that way.

They had a bunch in stock, and the kit was on sale for $69 something. It comes with media, polish, and a shitty separator that looks like a gold pan with slits cut out of it. I'm really happy with the tumbler though. This is what I ended up with..

I hope everyone has a great Wednesday, bullshit free.

Peace.

I got a bad sunburn a couple months ago. My wife soaked towels in icy vinegar water and made a compress on my back. She did it until my burned skin was cold to the touch. That took all the sting out.

I also put aloe on a lot.

Thanks for the info, Bogie.......cool.

Later, Homieses.

I'd heard vnegar takes the sting out, but it's better to have direct knowledge of the fact from someone. Good to know, bogie.

Why do I crave coffee late at night?
