I was under the impression that the Charnwood made-up rifles used Belgian(?) barrels and not Sterling barrels. Certainly some appear to have been breeched up and THEN had the foresight block bands (and sometimes the bayonet lugs) machined in situ afterwards.

Accuracy and Charnwood No4 made-ups aren't words that sit easily together no matter what you really do, as stated quite rightly by t/box. But if you want some good fun shooting with cheap 7.62mm ball ammo then they are a great way to go. I taught my son to shoot and get used to big calibres using one using plentiful stocks of date/time expired RG ammo.

From a collectors point of view - of which I am definately not - I really don't know where they fit/sit, being neither fish nor fowl
