The rifle is stamped as a 7.62x51 mate, but that's of course just the Nato name for .308 Winchester. Originally Posted by badger

You can learn all the math in the 'Verse, but you take a wagon in the field that you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as a turn in the whirls. Love keeps her on the road when she oughta stop, tells you she's hurtin' 'fore she keens. Makes her a home....

Re: Lets see your rifles?
It's not a rifle, but it's the last firearm I owned before leaving the UK
It was hell on wheels with Brenneke slugs
I fitted the HK sights, SAW grip and Galil type fore-end for extra assualty type goodness.Last edited by WhiteRockForge; 22-04-12 at 12:05 AM. Reason: For more info

They are supposed to be very effective at rapid fire.

That's a real beauty. Originally Posted by deovolens

Re: Lets see your rifles?
I myself am not able to fire rapid shots, in Switzerland I have seen veterans who were able to perform very well.Every type of rifle: lever, Mauser, Smith Rubin, pump has pros and contras.So the "real" hunters use only the "one shot "types.I like very much the Ruger no 1.

Re: Lets see your rifles?
I have a Schmidt-Rubin K31 and although it doesn't look as pretty as yours, it shoots very nicely.
