    I bought 2 gigantic heavy old bench rifles

    Hard to tell from a picture. Might be a 30BR They were quite popular or are quite popular with Benchrest score shooters. A lot of clubs that shot score, club matches not sanctioned matches allowed guys to build heavy Rifles. As there was no weight limit rules in the club matches.

    Yes they absolutely will grow back or spring back. You can measure them after sized and after they sit a half hour or so using a comparator and dial indicator. Unless you annealed them before you sized them. I don’t recommend annealing unless you have an annealing machine. I use an old bench...

    Fairchance Saturday IR 50/50 Factory match shaping up to be a real barn burner.

    This is actually my sight in target. It shoots very well and was shooting well for me in the match. I just lost. Wind conditions It’s a shooter. Shoots almost as well as an UL Rifle. So it is a lot fun to shoot it.

    We were missing about eight shooter by my count. So didn’t turn out to be as big as we thought it would. But it has been a blast shooting these old Rifles.
