I got a sporterised No.4 recently, whilst there is a little frosting in the grooves (it's a 2 groove 1943 Longbranch) the rifling looks pretty sharp and the bore is shiny. However at 50 yards it is putting EVERY bullet sideways through the target. Though the stock was really nicely reshaped and teh forend sanded well and a Parker hale front sight ramp was fitted, the barrel was cut down by bubba - hacksaw marks are still obvious on the end and i"m thinking that this is the cause of the keholing. Is there anything I can do to personally allveiate this problem, I was thinking use of Dremel, getting it recrowned etc etc. Seems a shame to never use such a compact and good looking wee rifle.
