Schmidt. Rubin 22

Post by barbarossa »

Took my Schmidt Rubin 22 out today for a little fun today.Shot a little offhand ,gun seems to have a lot of promise (groupings my fault not the rifle as it was a bit cold today) when I get time to do some serious shooting it should prove to be an accurate gun.Also I have to say that shooting it is just pure fun and I m hooked

Very cool!

I have a couple of .22 trainers, had a bunch at one time. I thought I had a picture of it but can't find it of my Enfield No.7. Only .22 repeater based on the Enfield no.4. They were contracted for 2500 for the Royal Australian Air Force but never completed. My dad and I just happened to be in the right place at the right time. Deadly accurate! I also have a Yugo Mauser single shot and a Martini ,22lr. Nothing better than a good ,22 on a warm afternoon and a brick of shells.
:D

I really like that Enfield Trainer, can you tell a specifics about it? Todd
30/30 Winchester: Not accurate enough fer varmints, barely adequate for small deer; BUT In a 10" to 14" barrelled pistol; is good for moose/elk to 200 yards; ground squirrels to 300 metres

250 Savage... its what the 223 wishes it could be...!

Long Lee Enfield designed to copy the S.M.L.E SHT Mark II converted around 1912 mine still retains the bolt cover though the magazine cut off is missing as well as the volley sights

Yes the greener is very light and well balanced rifle.The gun is a takedown as well and the reciever has checkering at pattern on it .That said my favourite martini rifle I have is a Francotte martini sporting rifle retailed by J Venables and son in England.It has a 26 inch
Ovate barrel with a full length ribs with express sights and is also is in 22lr.The balance of this rifle is amazing
