That hole is where the floorplate release is.
Push in on the plunger in that hole to drop the floorplate.
Typically the hunter will use a bullet-tip.

Pardon my ignorance but what exactly is a 'Custom 308 Jeffery'?

Is it a 308 made by Jeffery or did some one take a Jeffery and make a 308 custom rifle from it?

It is a nice looking rifle.

I'm still confused.

Is it a 308?

If it is than it was not made by Jeffery as I understand there time frame. Unless it is a new rifle made by Paul Roberts.

My error-- the caliber noted on the weapon is 7,62 x 51.18
which is basically a 308.
