Hi Martin,
Another Enfield to look at would be an Envoy target rifle which will shoot the distances you want easy and they sell for less than £800

Re: A interesting 308
I am surprised at the interest my AIA creates I have had several offers to buy it. Yet they don't seem to get a good press. I have altered mine a bit. I have fitted a scope a new modified 5 round magazine its less bulky than the original. I have removed the muzzle break because crud keeps accumulating behind it. I fitted a custom made thread protector that makes it look quite sexy in my opinionCalling first dibs on the AIA

They are supposed to be inaccurate but mine shoots really well. Its another one I will not sell. Because its great fun and I really like reloading for it. I can shoot it indoors at 25 yards down loaded with cast boolits if I want. Great fun.

Re: A interesting 308
We find our AIA 7.62x39 Goblinator to be very accurate too ! It's great fun to knock down steel plates at 400 yards, then to slip on an AK-47 30 round magazine and have a mad minute...

I don't mind rifles with a bad rep - makes it more worthwhile ironing out the bugs and getting them shooting right! :shakeshout:

Re: A interesting 308
'Ironing out the bugs' is one thing, but with a Mas you might as well melt it down...I was going to say 'and start again', but thinking about the metal quality you could be better off making a boot scraper or such with it razzSandgroper wrote:I don't mind rifles with a bad rep - makes it more worthwhile ironing out the bugs and getting them shooting right! :shakeshout:
