Royal Irish Rifles Cap badge

I dont know much about British cap badges but it's a new field that I want to get into. I've been kicking this Irish Rifles badge around for ages with out it having a home on a cap. I had acquired this badge less  '41 dated cap from my good friend @DAK D, so I put the badge on it today. But I am wondering if this is the right type of cap for this badge, seems a bit large. Any help or info would be great. Also can anyone suggest some good reference titles on British and Commonwealth  Cap insignia. Thanks!

Hello Tony,

I send my sincere thoughts to you about the sad loss of Gary..Unexpected, too soon and You All Miss Him as a Good Friend!

Sorry, I cant help with this as my knowledge is not of this kind.....Only the French Resistance and agents of the SOE.

Best to you....Ian

Cap now has the correct badge. Original badge was misplaced, but now cap is as it should be. 🙂
