    Thanks 30Three. I have NOT shot the MkIII. I have shot the No.4. While I do not recall the No. 4's grouping, I do not recall it being anything alarmingly out of the normal.

    Now, the MkIII was so pretty to me that I only bought it as a pretty wall hanger, that could be used if need be. But several here have pointed out that is has no real collectors value, so I might as well just have fun with it. I will give it a shot and see what she does. Thanks for the info!

    I am suspecting the wood is from India as browningautorifleicon indicated. I will have to see if I can find any references to it on the internet? I tend to be leary of Indian products. Made for show and not much quality put in them. But, hopefully I am wrong. They built Lee Enfield, right? Wouldn't they have been instructed and taught by the best?
