New barrels in the UK?

[LondonEnfield]

It is indeed a 303. I vaguely remember the Lothar Walther barrels a few years ago but I can't remember who was selling them.

Convert to 7.62/.303? Do you mean one or the other? Or is there an oddball wildcat cartridge out there?

I would either use a 7.62 ex target barrel and contour to the No4 profile or re chamber an ex target barrel for .303, bit more work to do, but a lot more bullet choice and still use your .303 brass, Bruce in Oz may be along shortly with some facts and figures.....

Chris at CG Firearms uses the Lothar Walther barrels on his re-furbed/re-barreled No.4's.

Awaiting delivery of one of these myself. Can't wait. Had a 1941 Long Branch he supplied & another of his No. 4 re-furbs previously. We're brilliant rifles.
