I may not hit anything with it, but I'll bet it beats yours in the beater department.

Ha ha.
Ignore the mess ....
I hate that rear sight, I need to get one with the micrometer screw adjuster. Yep, he's been FTR'd sometime back. All kinds of markings on the stock, no idea what they mean.
I'm working on the bedding right now with Miltons help. Hope to turn it into a paper plate blaster at least.
And I just slugged the bore.
1943 vintage Canadian, 2 grove LH twist:
Bore Diameter: .303" No surprise there.
Grove Diameter: .317" From what I've read this is not unusual for a war time barrel either.
From the muzzle back to about 10" forward of the chamber the bore was fairly smooth, but then there was a couple really rough places.
So, I'm thinking this old warrior will stay with jacketed bullets unless I find a new barrel for him.
Beware ............ the ides of March ..... Oh wait, that's Shakespeare not Indiana.
