B.O.T.R. & the 7.62 Enfield conversions

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

Some of you devotees of the 7.62mm may
be interested in this little gem, written by Bloke On The Range! For those who may not know him, or of him, he's a Brit living in Europe, Switzerland IIRC, & writes a very good firearms blog. He's also heavily into European "action" competition shooting.

DISCLAIMER: I have no connection with
the writer or publisher, I just found it interesting.

	B.O.T.R. aka, Mike Burns is also a very skilled shot with a .303 No.4, he come over from Switzerland to Bisley to shoot the Historic Service Rifle meeting which he won in 2019. I'm rather proud to admit to being the person who suggested this competition in the first place; my body can no longer do the positional stuff so I only shoot comps now where everything starts prone and ends prone! I particularly liked his YouTube vid where he experimented with the battle sight "Ghost" rings from different No.4 rear sights. Edited to add: Apologies I can't get the second vid to link...admins??
