Rifle is in hand and is quite nice.
Sharp rifling with mildly frosted grooves, looks highly likely restocked by Waghorn in Australia (beautiful job). Horn buttplate was worm eaten in spots but fixed up by my importer/smith Steve Bertram.
Ejector rifle, standard rimless .242 Vickers, tight as if new, and ejects empty formed cases with alacrity.

The dead of Winter here so no chance to shoot it yet.
I am able to recreate the unobtainable ammo as I also have the Cogswell & Harrison Mauser in .242 Vickers that I load for.
Now just a matter of getting a break in Winter to take it out to shoot.
