Serial # indicates '46, but there was some real funny stuff that went on in 46. A lot of parts from '41 were used on rifles that were made in '46-'47. The war had things a miss for a while and after 46 they had to use up parts that were not used in the 3 (or so) years they were not in full production. A cool tidbit about the 375 H&H 25" barrel was it was reserved for the supergrades starting (catalogued) in 1939. The standard grades didn't see the 25" medium wt barrel until after 1944 (probably more like '46 or '47)....
