Need to know if I made a wise purchase? Sporterized 303 British with a wooden Monte Carlo style stock (I think),or that style of stock anyhow, few scratches but not bad. The rifle itself has the markings (No 4 Mk I * LONG BRANCH 1944) On the side of the barrel near the muzzel end are the markings C.A.I. ST. ALB. VT 303 CAN, plus various other possible import stamp marking on the barrel, not sure if their significant or not. It has a peep site with a big hole, flip the sight for a small hole. 10 round magazine. I also got 50 rounds of ammo, 1/2 is marked KF 67 the other half is GB55 and another 10 rounds of soft tip hunting rounds. Down side is the numbers don't match. The guy I got it from, who is family, claims it is a very accruate rifle and is willing to buy it back anytime. Is it possible to find a 5 round magazine for this? This KF 67 & GB 55 ammo, do you think its corrosive? Any input is appreciated. 300 bucks is what I gave, what do you expert think?
