That's a fairly new manufacture pistol and it's slotted to take the Inglis type shouldering stock? Yep.... 45 yrs old Did the serial search. Built 1974 74C02XXX Was it slotted from the factory, or done later? Does the serial search tell that info ? Sorry for the ignoramus questions... I didn't realize that the BHP was still being manufactured with the slots so far after WW2. I went through four BHP purchases before finding the first slotted.

Went out for a quick shoot, not trying hard but also not out to waste ammo. 550 yards, 30 out of 30. The purple marks previous hits.

Not me . . . I can't afford those gourmet powders. All my "good" .308 loads have used Varget and H4895.
