Thanks, Marrakai.
That is just what I was referring to. Beauty.
On this same catagory titled Lee Speed - Best Quality is an Army-Navy brand in .303 that is also a prize. I may work on my .303 candidate and see what happens.
I do not know how the charger bridge is supposed to be removed though.
Any suggestions?

Thanks for the kind words. I use a hacksaw and file to remove the charger bridge. On the No.1, one must contend with a set of holes and a slot that must be filled. This can be done by welding or soldering on a patch. If done with care, it looks fine.

Something that I've mentioned before is the tendency for the restocked rifles to exhibit a "wandering zero", something I attribute to the fore end floating around with out a proper anchor. What I will probably do in the future is use a barrel band or cross pin and physically tie the front of the fore end to the barrel. Comments?
