    It is the proof stamp that the rifle passed when it was rebarreled to 7.62 or commonly called at the time the crack test stamp. At Lithgowicon.

    I've seen both CAS and CAL stamps; I'm certain that the CAL one is Lithgow, and have read somewhere that Sportco in South Australiaicon did the crack testing as well, which might explain the different mark.
