It has Mauser action strength.
It has Lee Enfield cock on closing.
It fires .303
It has awesome sights.

Re: Best ever battle rifle
Depends on the battle !!
600 yards ?
Or the more common 100-300 yards ?
If the latter - it has to be the AK47 !!

I like my number 5.
Fortunately I can't comment on it's prowess as a battle rifle.

In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?
