    This in heaps.
    I've used several of Lyn's tuned up, budget Chinese rifles and they knock spots off of many outfits offering super tunes on HW and AA rifles.
    Put on heading 270, assume attack formation

    35 years ago we found a very rusty Relum Taurus in an abandoned half sunken boat It was covered in red rust. I took the stock off & chucked the rest in a tank of diesel for a week. Put a new piston head & washer in it & it & it was shooting again. The trigger on these is agricultural but you can see that the budget for these was spent mostly on the barrel. It is beautifully rifled & shoots really well. We still have it.

    IJ would have liked this story, the rescue of a ‘Hungarian Swamp Donkey’ from an actual swamp!

    I think one or two of the AGW writers maybe BTDT liked the Taurus or Telly. Clearly a very robust rifle. A heavy trigger can be overcome with enough practice like with the old .303 Enfield..
