Nice!

I am planning to try Federal Match Primers in the same set up soon; as I have been advised by a very experienced shot that they are better, more consistent than the Winchester's that I am currently using. I will post results when they are tested.

I finally got to practice on a 200 metre range last week with my No4 mk1/2. I put 40 rounds through it and was pleased with the result, I am slowly improving my technique and breathing and that showed towards the end of the session. There is a flyer in the 4 ring but not visible on this photo.

This was using Tubal 3000 (39,3 grains) and Sierra Matchkings, Remington brass and winchester primers. Prone position,( no rest)
