Maybe the proof marks were ground off at some point in time?

Is it correct to have the barrel threading different?

To me, this barrel looks like it was ground down. The lines on that knox form are heavily rounded.

Anyone know what rifle this barrel is for? The chamber reinforce looks like it’s straight, not tapered.

Some Parker Hale barrels are totally rounded with no knox form flat area.
