NoMk111 restore

[303carbine]

My last restoration was with a No1Mk111 Lithgow and a BSA No1Mk111, the BSA was an all matching sporterized rifle with a good bore.
The Lithgow unfortunately had a very corroded bore and a cracked receiver and failed the headspace test miserably, but was a complete rifle.
I took both rifles apart and began fitting the Lithgow wood and metal onto the BSA,
I shimmed the barrel at the sling band and then under the nosecap and assembled the rifle, it shot right at two inches at 100 yds.
