    If it any help this is the one published in the book "Textbook of Small Arms 1928"
    It is the military dimensions of the cartridge and chamber.

    Note - non of this 'namby pamby make it thin' requirement as per the SAAMI drawings 0.064" +0/-0.01" (military requirement for case rims was 0.058" to 0.064")




    And the chamber dimensions from the 1943 dated blueprints (engineering drawings) for the No1 Mk3 which I think you have already seen.


    I have the set of fully dimensioned drawing of every part and component of the No1 Mk3 but they are too large to post on the forum.

    A 'small fraction' of one of the series of drawings :

    Mine are not the best, but they are not too bad. I can think of lots of Enfields I'd rather have but instead of constantly striving for more, sometimes it's good to be satisfied with what one has...
