Educational Zone #71 - Great Firearms - The M-1917 Enfield - Page 2
Another cartouche is a "P" in a circle, under the grip area, which stands for "Passed".
The only sad thing about my rifle is that it was once shot with corrosive ammunition and put away without proper cleaning.
The bore is rough.
But with handloads using bullets with long riding surfaces, I can get reasonable accuracy.
I explain more about it here:
Solving Accuracy Problems With Handloading
Here I am shooting it this morning.
Here's a typical 7 shot group at 50 yards.
Not too bad for an old rifle with a worn bore.
Here I am shooting it standing.
The recoil is not too bad, especially with the weight of this rifle, a little over 9 pounds.
Here's Tman rolling a jug around on the dirt berm.
