not realy a lee speed I would say its a gunmaker made "sporter" using an outdated military rifle.
the price is with 725 euro not bad for a 375 NE 2,5" but I have the Mannlicher 92.

if it was a .315 India/8x50R I would be tempted.

It looks awfully good for me to consider this a "sporterised military rifle" as listed in the description. If so, the builder did a very good job.
