I added this here, sure more could be said about this specific .303:
I found a .303 that looks like a Springfield, but I can't see much except for British Crown type stamps, and a flower stamp on the top of the action, and barrel.
The bore looks okay, but the muzzle will defenantly need some polishing. They want $200 even.
Okay, got all the info on the .303
on the right hand side of receiver:
ERA
Serial number
On the left side Barrel
MADE IN USA, stamped over something I can’t read and two tiny stamps before the “303”and a tiny number 4 after, then BM in a circle with three lines coming out of the top.
On the left side of receiver:
An arrow pointing left then’ NETR PROOF’ stamped over a stamp of G&R with two crossed flags with an “F” under the flags, then a circle stamp with HM in it and a crown on top, then a perfectly legible arrow/and the “G&R” over the crossed flags and F on the bottom.
