    If you give me or Son the part number that will be marked on them, we'll tell you what they relate to. But the .301! gauge is the 'must run freely under its own weight' for all .303" and the .297 is the same for the L1A1 and some early Brens. The later Brens were .299.

    But PLEASE do not let gauges cloud your judgement. Let your eyes and the accuracy test (not its zeroing ability....) of the rifle be your judge.
