Knothole is the little blackish spot on the left side of the action at the screw site.
Here are some bore pics:

Sorry for my confusion! What does it mean " Fishbelly shaping " taken in?
 
Some reproductions have slightly rounded bottom to the butt stock when viewed from the side. It is often referred to as “fish belly.” I, like the previous owner of this rifle don’t really care for the look and he removed it and straightened the bottom line.
