Line-up of the 30 caliber cartridges

30-03, 30-06, 30M1 and 30M2

The early 30M2 had the gray stain on the bullets when introduced during
the late 1930's as an aid in identification of the cartridgeAttachment 63634

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

The Thomas pencil point bullets and regular Thomas bullets were manufactured for
early rifle match shooting. Thomas bullets were used in the 30-40 Krag icon

, 30-03 and 30-06 loadings. Remington did load them too. Not really rare but interesting to include with your
early NM 1903 rifleAttachment 63682
