Rem Lee M1899 Sporter

Post by green »

I recently had the opportunity to examine a M1899 Rem Lee sporter in .303" British calibre, 28" serial 755xx. In addition to the 303. stamped on the bottom of the barrel the butt plate, stock under the bp and the trigger guard were also stamped 303. Were these additional stamps to indicate the calibre or are they assembly numbers which just by chance are the same as the calibre?
