In the early stages of the trials with the P13 when the authorities realised that the rifles were not (amongst other things) achieving an acceptable standard of accuracy three rifles were used in some of the earliest tests to try and establish the causes of poor grouping the rifle 210 is recorded in the official tests as one of those rifles

Points to note is the lack of graduation on the dial sight and the fact that the depth of the butt between the heel and toe has been subjected to some "experimental" alterations.
