Oh man, that sucks.
Ours was flooded during the spring melt & we're still clearing up some of the mess.

If it has been proofed, it will have a circular stamp with the letters CAS on the left hand side of the action about where the charger bridge is.
This is the stamp that is applied at Lithgow.
Rifles without this stamp could not be used in official competitions.

Basically any indepth information. Schematics, Parts lists and measurements. Why? I have been given a butchered No4 Mk1 with a .308 barrel. Stock is a throw-away. So instead of mucking around with an orginal No5 I would construct one. I know it is wrong in many eyes, but this was destined for the scrap metal bin anyway nothing matches up. I want to build it to close to spec's.Also I have another No4 coming my way that I want to restore.

You should probably check out photos of the No.4 conversions before deciding on using this rifle for your project.
 
Many conversions have no bayonet lugs so the lack of lugs is not a sign that the barrel has been cut down. Also some target versions have fore ends that can be mistaken for a sporterized no.4 fore end.
 
If the barrel is not full length then you probably aren't sacrificing a restorable No.4 conversion rifle so the carbine idea sounds good to go.
 
Remember that unless proofed for modern .308 loads its best to stick to ammo that generates no more than 48,000 CUP or 51,000 PSI, the equal of M-80 Ball ammunition.
 
PS
Commercial 7.62 conversions should bear markings of the company that did the work, but conversion kits were available here in the 90's so some rifles may have been converted by unqualified craftsmen.

Sorry fella's this thread is worthless without photo's. I don't have any of my old Lithgow, all those years and I don't even remember taking any. Too early to take photo's of the project 35.303 as I don't collect it from my mate until the 25th of Sept and all I've done towards the conversion is order an aftermarket barrel, it will be 6 to 8 weeks. I guess it could take 6 months to finally get the whole project cobbled together

Check this link out, When I saw and read what they have done here it sealed the deal for me http://www.statusguns.com/status_35_303.htm

"spring of '09 and went to the Zombie Shoot at DPMS,"

ZOMBIES - thats a hoot , we get some real characters for that , but we get some real nice folks too - i encouraged a couple guys to come try mini three gun , they did and they were good too , hope the conversion doesnt end there ,

i was an RO on the 50 that year , the one where skip from cobb industries had the SAW set up , this year i was an RO on the shotgun stages - the one that remington sponsored ,

you may have heard , TRI-GUN challenge was canceled this year , our range problems got resolved today , but the three gun and cowboy shooting are in question , we can now shoot pistols again but they have restricted action shooting , george and i have been putting on the mini-three guns - thats on hold as are the tactical shotgun tim was putting on , the restrictions are excessive ,

ill be shooting SASS in kimball as a home base and traveling to allmens in morristown , new ulm , howard lake , maybe another and probably north dakota - thats where 'big' jon has gone ,

you may recall he was club manager at deltone and the stage designer for tri-gun , so ill be shooting three gun there as well , a lot of DPMS staff are gone , lots of changes after randy left , but he is fighting the range battle in a manner i can get behind , im one of the certified RSOs we will be required to have on site whenever open from now on ,

there was a time , once upon a time in the west , in america , when we were free and a country of , by , and for the people , it was a different world

Hello, I seem to remember something about a 35-303  wildcat on a Candian website. Perhaps some of our posters from the Great North can fill you in.
