BSA model E 303

did this a while back but horrid at posting them when I do it. Just a tip-use the proper drill for doing holes for plugs otherwise you get ragged edges. Already knew I'd done it way back when but brutally obvious once they were in there. Hopefully some sanding and steaming bring it out a bit.
Geez don't plug drill use up heaps of wood for a little dowel. Saved all the cuttings, there was heaps, just in case... well just in case.
Left them proud to sand back
I even saved the shavings from the original holes I drilled in case I had to fill in any cracks etc. and they may come in use for the problems above.

Rifle assembled in time for @Pengy and his mid winter festival which I ultimately missed, for a try-still needs something done about the bits gone from the fore-end, bedded once I know if the barrel is shite and refinished.
