Which do you think has the stronger action?

[Sgt Striker]

Thinking of thinning the herd again, and just looking for some opinions as to which has the stronger action, the Enfield P14 or a LB No4 Mk1*.

I think it's the P14, but would like some feedback.....

 

[Swiend]

No doubt, the P-14.

P-14 really a Mauser with front locking lugs.

Thinking of thinning the herd again,

I think your only allowed to do this if you have two of the same.

Otherwise it is a sin!

The P14 is far and away the stronger action. People build 505 Gibbs rifles on those actions all the time. A No.4 action would literally blow apart if you did that.

Ok, then I guess I will keep my P14 for test loads (no I'm not going to try some super hot loads, just trying out some different powders) and I'll "think" about selling my No4 sometime down the road.....
