The government would be in disbelief that any law abiding rifle shooter could need or provide good reason to own anything with a nato stock number.

Claiming back £11k for an L42 would more than likely exceed any limits in compensation.

Agreed......If you have such a beast, never use use the term "Sniper" when dealing with your FEO.....its a Marksmen's rifle....
I wouldn't even go so far as putting "Marksman" down for a variation!

"Rifle - Bolt Action" is what I would use and it would be a 100% accurate description under the letter of the law! No need to elaborate more than that...
