once agan thank you all for your time to give me a hand.

i have taken some parts apart and cleaned them and put them back together. i shot about 40 rounds of the american eagle brand federal FMJ 150gr.
if i try ammo for hunting in her it will be strictly 150gr. bullets. most likely barnes-X bullets. i have also been told about the floating fireing pin that was used to have problems with todays thinned primers as the action slams the round into the chamber. the old M2 ball ammo had a thicker primer and would have non of these problems.


may i ask a question on top of a question?

what would you all do it you had to send your gun out? mil-tech or DGRguns ? my gun does have to get re-parkerized on that part that holds the bayonet. also the reciever itself where the en-bloc would go the sides have a decent amount of lite dusting of rust. so i would like to get her done over. to original specs. when i bought it it was supposed to be at 75%. the guy who owned it before did the stock over a bit. the barrel is not shot out but is getting glossy, not pitting. stand up shooting at 50-75yds i got i guess for a 60+ year old gun ( not trying for accuracy ) pie sized plates with the ocassional stray. she is quite the firearm and i am still glowong on how she feels and shoots.
