This rifle came from a collector, who only bought these .303's as long as everything matched up

Might be the angle of the photograph but I can’t see any number on the nose cap.

Looks like a later replacement target barrel (uncrowned muzzle) - not necessarily a bad thing, but a point if wanted by a purist. Take-off the rear handguard and you may find a supplier - Fultons (of Bisley) are often seen. I'd hazard a guess that since it has a sling swivel in front of the trigger guard, also shot by a target shooter.
