Aye canny rifles, the Lange sight is quiet sculptural.

Mine is a 1916 Somme capture by Lt Kyall of the DLI, shoots very well too. :grin:

Thanks fellas!

Dromia that's sounds very nice too!!

I will shooting it for the first time on the 11th at Bisley and bought PPU 200gr today!
Really looking forward to seeing what it can do!

As you say Dromia they shoot very well from what I've heard!

I know what you mean! I don't think this is going to be my last!

I've got my eye on a K98 sniper now! Just need to find some of the paper stuff to get one.

Classic rifles and my favourite Mouser, I shoot mine regularly out to 800m.

Mines also a 1917 Spandau, a Stern Gewehr.
