"This must be one of the first ever made nitro proofed .303 sporting rifles by them."

Good in theory, but how does he know they weren't made in the hundreds in a batch ?

The rear sight is not original to the rifle - it looks like the rearsight from a CCLE or "territorial pattern" long lee which was not made before 1907.
The bolt also looks military marked by the serial # position.
