As long as I am taking the time to post pics, here is one that is nice to look at.
It is all Winchester- every part. |

From what they say the Winchester P-14 is the more accurate, but Winchester production prototypes failed a parts interchangability test.
This is a fine looking example.

The Winchester manufacture P-14, fitted with a fine elevation adjustment rear sight was used to some extent as a sniper rifle before a proper scope mount for the P-14 was developed in 1918.The scoped P-14 was not developed in time to be used in any numbers before the Armistice, not sure whether or not any got to France before hostilities ceased.
The aperture sighted P-14 proved consistently more accurate than the Scoped SMLE MkIII (T) rifles.
