I've learned a lot about my 303 that I have had for over 30 years. On the front sight is stamped PH so I will assume that it was sporterized by Parker Hale. When I bought the gun in the early 70's it was all I could afford, I wanted a hunting rifle and also a truck gun as we lived in the Grande Prairie area and I did a lot of traveling on cutlines, back roads and no roads, and I always liked to have a gun with me. I have often thought I should get a newer rifle but never could find a good enough reason that the wife might accept. My son bought a new Remington 30-06 and I can out shoot him with my rifle, much to his amazement. I think he has trouble accepting the fact that the old man and old gun are better shots. My 303 is in excellent condition and I plan on keeping it that way. Thanks guys for all the info you have given me.
