Was gifted an M91/30 Tula with shot out, pitted bore. Rifle was free. Thinking about having rebored to .35 cal. with 16" twist and chopping off barrel to handy length around 22" as a spare camp and truck gun. I have .362-260FN mold from LBT already which I plan to use. Looking at installing very rugged ghost ring adjustable peep and sturdy post front like M1 Garand front and 03A3 rear forward on receiver ring, so don't have to bend bolt. May need to open mag box for case necks opened to .35 to pass through.
Anybody done this? Comments, suggestions?
