This commercially made Lee-Speed B.S.A. & M Co .22 rifle appears to be a conversion from an earlier .297/230 training rifle. The bolt dust cover is engraved with “Wm Powell & Son Birmingham” probably the gun maker who built / converted the rifle to its present configuration, commercial rifles are not dated. It is in good overall condition including the barrel and it has been fitted with a very good B.S.A turn over windage adjustable target sight.
