Story, well I do have a spare P14 action I've been just saving until the right barrel came along. Has some pitting on the receiver ring and along the wood line. And there is a blonde p14 stock just waiting to be married to the receiver and barrel. It all depends how the new p14 looks when I get it. The receiver has been drilled for both weaver bases and the right side of the receiver for a rear sight.So at the present neither barrel is actually will be wasted or should I say unused.
Almost sent the folks here a missive about not getting the rifle up and firing. Seems I found a winchester high wall rifle chambered in 23-20wcf. Barrel has been relined so the bore was good. Price was right as well.Only bug a boo was that it was a number 1 barrel on the high wall action. After getting it opened to take either the 32-40 cartridge or the 38-55 cartridge. But then the question arouse about the small barrel tennon on the #1 barrel. So would had to get a 30" long 32 or 375 barrel and get it threaded to take either of the two mentioned cartridges. And since I have a perfectly nice high wall action with schutzen trigger guard and set triggers and has the larger barrel tennon I passed on the sale. I'm not one to tempt the fates especially when it comes to safety.So with that said and as money becomes available the calibers will be either the good old 303 british or a version that is the 303 british cartridge case necked up to take 375 cast and jacketed bullets.Still have to get some more parts from springfield sporters such as trigger assembly, mag catch and spring, trigger guard with the two screws, stock bolt, spring and washer, the pins for the trigger set and bolt release assembly. Once I get all that and test fit them, construction can start from there.I find that If I do a project slowley but shuely it gets done. Am looking for a early type cocking piece for my project. The one that has the flat end with the circular ring around it and the knurling. These seem to be kind of hard to locate. So there we are for now. Frank
