    Help needed to identify sniper rifle transit case

    Not exactly Enfield related but hopefully Peter and others will care to comment. I recently picked up a wooden and metal rifle case from the Telford area within about a mile of Donnington depot. It is very military looking and my Parker Hale M85 fits perfectly. However, I have seen the metal cases for the M85 which is very similar to the L96 cases. My gut feel is that this may be a case for one of the sniper trials rifles used to find the replacement for the L42A1. All comments would be welcome - it is very well constructed and the catches are lockable.
