    Here is a "common sporterized model" that was done by Parker Hale (the foresight is a dead giveaway) with a Bushnell 3-9x32 scope.
    Britishicon Lee Enfield No4 MK I, 303, Item S-33 : Bolt Action Rifles at GunBroker.com

    It was probably an FTR (Factory Thorough Repair) and sporterized by professionals (not a Bubba hack job). This gun will probably sell in the $200 range.
    *****************
    Post Script: The gun sold for $130 USD.
