That is, to my mind, a thing of beauty......
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

And I know of a Lee Shaver .22LR conversion tube going for a song too. I have one, good cheap practice. 300 yards with .22 is about the same as 1000 yards with elevation and wind effect. Great fun when you turn up at the local .22 indoor target range, pull this out of the case and say (with a straight face) "OK to shoot this here.....?"
