    Perhaps that was the best muzzle crown style at the time for accuracy?

    My BSA Heavy Barrel is the same as well.

    Mine too, but FYI, the darn thing has a dent right on the inner edge, it looks nice but turns out to be vulnerable. Now I'm hunting all over for one of those parker hale front sight protectors with the flap for the muzzle cover.
