Hello Every One
I bought a M305 several years ago and have shot it very little as I’m a simple sort of fellow that enjoys a simple bolt rifle. I have little knowledge of firearms compared to most but by no means know nothing about firearms so I thought I would ask here about the Norinco M305 before seeking out and most likely bothering a rifle smith with simple questions. Recently I decided to finish what I set out to do and finish off this rifle. I beaded the rifle in a USGI fibreglass stock, added a beautiful billet operating spring guide, new operating rod spring, shimmed the gas block, added a cheek rest, vented hand guard, ARMS Mount with throw lever scope rings and a Falcon 4X18X56 illuminated scope. I have only put about three hundred rounds of Fusion 150 gr. Ammo through it so far. The rifle is fun to shoot and at 200 meters I can hit the 3” gong all day but on paper the groups are about 3” to 4” at 200 meters. Another issue I have is brass getting caught between the scope mount and operating rod. So what would you CGN brother and sisters recommend improving the accuracy and solving the ejection issue? Is there a good reload formula I can use? Is there a way to tune the trigger? Have I done as much as a simpleton can do and now its time to send it to a professional? Thanks in advance for the answers and best regards.
