Bedding a #4 mk1

[Black Lab]

Hi, I have a #4 sporter that has no historical value. It is in overall very nice condition. The barrel has been cut back 1/4" so I thought I would build myself a poor man's "Sniper Rifle" I bought a new fore stock and I am in the bedding stage. I have been studying the The Canadian Marksman (Bedding the 7.62mm No.4 Rifle) - 1965 (click here) pages but I am stumped looking at sketch #3 I can't be sure if I am looking at the top or bottom of the stock. I need to move my barrel over to the left.
