welcome to the place! oh, by the way, we love pics!

whoa, that's nuts Rob. Glad you're ok and welcome back!

wow, this woman is quite lucky. Definitely a squib load.

Nice job in your "re" creation!! I bet it's a tack driver. I wasn't aware of the barrel twist on the M40.

If you are getting a 5 to 10 shot group equivalent to a grapefruit or better, you're well on your way. Nice pick up.

Congratulations on picking up a K31. You're obviously aware of their reputation as accurate service rifles, probably one of the most accurate actually. Enjoy your new shooter!!

Also, the "accurizing your k31" link that prof provided above truly works well!

If you have a Ross and a Long Branch, FAL, Diemaco (C8 or C7),you can post a Canuck thread.

I was thinking the same thing Prof. I don't neck size for the K31, I FL resize mine, however everyone's divided on annealing.

I already owned the old Lachmiller berdan decapper and used it to decap GP11 brass when I acquired my 1st. K31 (had 3 so far). However berdan primers have always been in short supply (most retailers don't stock them and they have to be special ordered). PRVI/PPU boxer brass is available and of exce...

I can`t find a source for the berdan primers anywhere in the U.S. Anyone know if an American citizen can buy primers if they drive to Canada ? No...

Welcome to the place! There are a few of us from the commonwealth.

Moved this thread to Swedish Rifles

Andre-Richard, trust me, both professrh and I will believe you! In fact, I went a step further. I picked up a stock made in Kentucky by Mickey McGuinness, specifically for the K31 which specifically centres the barrel in the barrel channel of the forestock and totally free-floats the barrel. From w...

Merveilleux! In Canada and the USA, the Swiss Rifle is still quite a bargain and those that do not reload can exploit GP11 at 60 cents per cartridge. Though to be honest, I enjoy shooting my 1896/11 Swiss long rifle more these days.

Sarge, you have a significantly cool milsurps and among them, obviously these fine SVT-40s in sniper config.
