    That's right BAR. In the days of the No4T's, some tired T's looked like they could do with a new barrel. A simple job at the bigger Field or Command workshops, the sniper would kick up a fuss if you tried to 'improve' it. As far as he was concerned, if it shot well and was accurate, that's all that concerned him. Same as L42's and later the L96's. In fact, L96's were quite notorious for gleaming new barrels tat would group well on the test range, from the layer but were rubbish at 400 yards, the optimum sniper target range
