Post WW2 Sniper conversion question

[CINDERS]

That's a very early Mk3 scope Cinders.

Hi Roger this is what the scope it is attached to, I have cleaned it up a bit since these pics, the bolt handle and scope had a few patches on it.
It is a '44 BSA Shirley and its serial No. is mentioned in Peters book as being used for pad trials (when they had issues with the front pads working loose) so it has some history that is proven by an expert on these rifles on the other side of the globe and it is a safe queen for obvious reasons.
Thanks for the info on the AK&S Roger.

Postscript ~ I had mentioned to Peter ages ago the T would not group and the draws were somewhat battered as the guard trigger front screw was allowing the whole action to rock on it even though it was tight so I had it re bedded (not quite the way it should be) I thought the scope was out as previous attempts produced less than satisfactory Mil specification group size.
I had asked a few questions of the really senior person (not age related) about a trip for the scope across the waves as I was trying to get to the bottom of its poor efforts but I found through trial and error that Win-748 is not the go with 303's having tried it in 3 different 303's with 174 SMK's so it was back to 2209 powder we went with my basic load using SMK's.
I had tried it from my Rock steady rest and it was just terrible so no rest the next time with the old back to basics load it landed 3 shots in an inch in the chest of a Fig.11 so shifted POA to the head next 3 shots in 3/8" this at 100m prone with sling the marker giving me indicated values and the group sizes by radio (Asked if I wanted to sell it ummm nope sorry.)
So that's the story of my T and it may not be traditionally bedded but I will be flashed and ashed when my son decides it may have to find another home but he is pretty keen on owning it as a 15 y/o shooter but not yet bucko.
