    Would a bolt from a No 5 serve as a good test?

    To test for 'fit' ............... Yes it will fit.
    To use it to test firing the rifle ........................... NO, it will not have been adjusted to properly fit your No4
    Mine are not the best, but they are not too bad. I can think of lots of Enfields I'd rather have but instead of constantly striving for more, sometimes it's good to be satisfied with what one has...

    Thank you sir. I just won an auction for a No 5 and hope to pick it up tomorrow so I will try it when I get home.
