"Old Army Rifle for sale, $50.00"

[Adam Helmer]

In last week's "Penny Saver" ( our weekly list of ads) I saw the above ad and called the phone number. The old guy selling the rifle did not have much information to give. He lives nearby, so I drove to his home. I saw the gun; it was a M1910 .303 Ross in very good outside condition and the bore was excellent. I quickly paid the asking price and brought the Ross home.

The rifle shot .303 Ball and my 150 grain handloads very well from my backyard bench. Our PA rifle deer season opens the Monday after Thanksgiving and this Ross will be afield that day with me.
