Greetings
I am unable to find a .500 Hannibal A Square blow up parts list and owners manual for my rifle

I own the book by Arthur B. Alphin, "Any Shot You Want," and it is about reloading more than the rifle itself.

I know the company went defunct in 2012.

Thank you,
A fellow hunter
 
Good evening,
I looked at pictures of Lee Enfield rifles online and they do not match in appearance. I will follow up with a picture.

On my rifle the bolt travels on the right, right handed.
My specific question is the mechanism on the left side of the action, it has a lever that locks down and some parts under that lever. What does it do? How is it supposed to operate? I am afraid a piece is gone and I wanted to check what I have against a blow up list.

Thank you,

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci

Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...
Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)

This compares favorably to 7 Rem Mag. with less powder & recoil.

I know that this thread is more than a year old but as a new member I thought I would pass along my .280AI loading.
I am shooting F Open long range rather than hunting but here is what is working for me and I have managed a 198.14 at 800 meters.
That is for 20 shots. The 14 are X's which is a 5" circle.
