What a blast from the past...... haven't used it in over 40 years, but can smell it from here.

I actually used it on my SMLE the other day after a plinking session. Smells real old fashioned - not like the new bubblegum smelling stuff.

"Plinking" with an SMLE?
I'd "plink" with an R9 tops!

Yeah, sure. A dinnerplate sized piece of 20mm steel welded to a star picket goes more like "BONNNNNG!" than "plink" though. Also had some fun with my Ruger .44 magnum and a couple of .22's.
Unfortunately a stuck case put the SMLE out of action until I got home to a decent cleaning rod.
