[QUOTE="ofbandg, post: 1112258, member: 91402"] What kind of rifle are you building? It sounds like you are trying for a target or varmint type of rifle and it seems like a lot of effort in a rifle that isn't the easiest to convert to pure accuracy. Good luck on the effort but, personally, I might go for a shorter barrel to gain a little stiffness. If looks means anything (and it usually does) I file the ear off the ejector housing on the Enfields and use a checkering file to checker the end of the housing. I do it to all of my Mausers as well. It works just as good and makes for a sleeker appearance. [/QUOTE]
