Re: Rigby Officer’s Lee E. Carbine (long post)


Finaly the dies arrived its been a anxious wait not knowing if the bore was shot out or worn.
Loaded 10 rounds with 44gr 2209 and 215 woodleigh RNSP .312 dia. They looked good settled on 75mm 0/l.
magazine was being a pain so settled for single load. Quick trip to the local range before dark.
Forgot the bags so set up a target at 50m. Off hand, and used the 100yrd sight. First was suprisingly pleasant and triger broke clean but a little heavy. A little low and the next 3 were lower. Flipped the 200yrd sight up and the next two were on the spot.
Next was at a can at the 100m mark, got it and was stoked.
Very happy that the .312 dia stabilzed, and no keyholling.
Looking forward to hunting with the Rigby and wont be doing anything to modify it. If it aint Broke!
cheers Mick
