From the serial number you sent me and the info in SRS and on Vi Shooter's page, it looks like you have the action from a 1903/1922 Heavy Barrel Target Rifle that was issued to the Coastal Artillery Rifle Team.

While a nice sporter that would fit well in anyone's racks and be a great rifle, it probably would have been worth more in original condition. That said, it could have well been "used up" and this is a fitting reincarnation. Nice rifle with an interesting history. I for one would be proud to have it.
