A friend showed me his Ross a couple years ago. He said it was his most accurate milsurp rifle. I didn't think much after that because they seemed very scarce and at the time I wasn't interested in reloading .303 British. I never thought I would find one that I could afford for myself. That changed last week when I was browsing a local forum. I took a day of leave and drove 150 miles round-trip to get this rifle before anyone could beat me to it. Overall the rifle looks very good to excellent. The bore is mirror bright with well-defined rifling. Nice crown which measures .3035-.304 with a cheap digital caliper. Does the stock look refinished? Where can I find information on the stock and receiver markings?
I have 6 boxes of PPU ammo and dies enroute for this rifle. I plan on shooting mostly cast boolits in this rifle. Any reloading tips? Does anyone shoot there Ross in CMP or like vintage military matches? Any parts I should be on the lookout for? I had a local gunsmith check headspace and he said it was good to go. Is there anything else I should check before I take it to the range? Thanks, I know thats a lot of questions.
