Peter I assume the Lyman fitted sniper your referring to is a Long Branch converted No4?
If so did they bring the mounting screws flush with the inside of the receiver and finish them to match? On the original H&H conversions I’ve seen the ends of screws have been milled off and refinished level with the inside of the receiver making them almost disappear.
On many of the recent fakes I’ve seen the screws are left short in their holes leaving a recess in which debris can collect inside the action which could, of course, cause no end to trouble.
