    I crudely sighted it on on a piece of wood at 60yd with two random brands of ammo, then fired two shots at an 8” gong at 350yd, hitting it on the second shot with 20” hold over, probably a fluke but made me smile anyway

    Walnut and blued steel,

    It is considerably lighter than my 85 Bavarian carbine. Has a bloody nice trigger too

    I'm not sure if the wood is walnut and there's sod all blueing left; but my old 1944 SMLE is now sporting a new Nikon 2-7x Prostaff scope. I've had this rifle since I was about 18 and still love using the 75-year old WW2 vintage lovely old girl! I bet she could tell some stories......

    I've been trying to suss who made it; but the marks are so worn!

    @norsk Is that a traditional Swedish christmas dinner ?

    It makes me slightly sick thinking about the rubbish that goes into canned sausage !
    Are you having a white Christmas ?
    Or has the novelty of snow worn off

    Cheers

    Xmas treat Winnie Pre-64 30-06

    Treated myself to mounting the Leupy 2-7 (courtesy of @oxfarmer) on the Win M70 mid 50s Super Grade, seems to be a good match.

    Beautiful timber on that rifle.
    All of mine are plastic or carbon stocked, but I’m developing a walnut and blue obsession which is going to get expensive.
