Default M1903a4---It's finished

Put this together for the CMP GSM Vintage Sniper Matches. Legal per CMP Rules. SC '43 receiver, 6-43 barrel, all GI parts except the CMP Stock. Weaver K2.5 w/post recital, vertical split rings, Redfield Jr Base.

Finished it last night, soon as it warms up a tad I'll shoot it a bit to get it to settle in the stock then see how it shoots with good ammo.

You betcha.

For Info, there will be a CMP GSM Clinic and Match in June and Aug. here in Newcastle if your interested.

We don't have a 600 yard range (only goes to 300) but as part of the Clinic well have a reduced (unsanctioned) GSM Vintage Sniper shoot on reduced targets to help people who want to shoot in the GSM Games to be held in Cody in Sept.

I don't know much at all about 1903s. Is there a good site where I can learn about them? I'm much more knowledgeable about Mosins and Enfields.
