Trying to confirm Cordite proof mark & date of proof?
|
|
Not on a double but on a rifle that is British proofed. With the arm holding a sword over NP proof, another proof mark that reads "Cordite 12 - 180 MAX" is a proof from 1904-1925, correct? I have read on this forum that the inclusion of the word "BULLET" between 180 and MAX would indicate post 1925 proof?
Thank you for your time.

I've done more reading and my rifle does not have the chamber information - I believe also a 1925 rules proof requirement? I think I've probably answered my own question and can say the rifle was proofed between when it was made in 1913 and 1925.

Wasn't that an easy answer?
