Lithgow HT Restoration Complete

[tbonesmith]

By the way, shot it today in a 200 meter scoped comp, and did terrible. But when I grouped it it shot 10 rounds into about 8 inches about a foot low and right (at 200 meters) so I'll have to zero the windage and correct the range drum and I should be getting close... the saga continues

you have done a good job cleaning and fixing it up.
my question goes out to those that have HT snipers. where I am looking at converting my standard issue 1941 Lithgow SMLE to a replica HT sniper, i have a replacement, non issued/unfired (as much as a war production barrel goes) Heavy 1942 Lithgow Barrel.
my question with this is how was the original HT barrels bedded into the forend, I have seen around half dozen varients of them, and wanted to keep it to original specs.
