Thread: lee speed copy

hey everyone. I'm slowly accumulating bits for a lee-speed type 303. Setting up for 215 grainers close bush stuff
Know of a very affordable rifle vintage 1906ish I think. before the charger bridge.
Needs a trigger guard/mag assembly (don't ask but really bubba'd), but I have one of those. Was out at Gunworks and found a cheap barrelled action that had of all things a bsa cape type express sight. Fixed front sight for 100, two folding leaves for 2-300 and a flip up ladder/elevator for way out. $25 bucks wheeeee.
real happy with that. have to get an honest opinion on what barrel is best but I think the whole rifle's barrel is a little better.
Thinking about a dust guard-any of these around?
also have a spare bolt with the safety on the striker. Been reading they are a bitch to make fit properly? there is no side safety on any of my bits or the rifle so would be nice to have something.
Plus need a mag. Would like to do a shortened fishbelly type but need one to start with.
Some of these bits would probably be better getting in one go from a complete scrap rifle maybe?
Thoughts everyone?
pics to come
