I, of course, had to buy a matching Mosin for me... along with a case of 7.62x54R. 880 rounds of recoil therapy. I'm planning on putting an Archangel stock on mine. I paid only $70 each for the Mosins (AIM Surplus) and $160 for the Ammo. Ah, the good old days... Scribbler also just bought a SMLE for himself but even .303 British is hard to find!ScribblersDadnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4321534012888636142.post-18465735702056938872013-05-06T09:17:49.864-07:002013-05-06T09:17:49.864-07:00LOL -- Scribbler's Dad !!

I've see Scribbler shoot and his experience shows.<br /><br />As far as big bore practice; might I suggest a couple of Mosin Nagants and a spam can of ammo. Even today, 91/30s can be found for around $150 or so and a spam can of 440 rounds for $105. <br /><br /><br />Scribbler,<br /><br />I've been interested in the Scout Rifle concept for while and one of the blogshoot attendees will have Ruger's version there. I picked up a box of .308; happy to share a round or two so someone else can try it.Bob S.http://3boxesofbs.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4321534012888636142.post-25171471817093387892013-05-05T17:41:33.227-07:002013-05-05T17:41:33.227-07:00Sorry, but ScribblersDad must disagree with the ch...Sorry, but ScribblersDad must disagree with the characterization of Scribbler as "not a skilled rifleman." He is an NRA expert in smallbore, was the youngest competitor at the NRA Smallbore Regionals in Bristol as a wee lad of about 13, and I have personally witnessed him put ten shots in a standard NRA rifle target through the same hole with a Kimber 82. Modesty aside, I am compelled to set the record straight!<br />Now, he does need practice with big bore rifles. Lots of practice. With his Dad..... anybody know where to find any ammo?ScribblersDadnoreply@blogger.com
