    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.

    Arrow

    It is US 30/06 M2 ball. It is all corrosive.
    I think you misread the LC 33 because LC didn't exist till 42 - unless it is Not US?.
    If nice clean ammo it will probably bring 25/30¢ a rd. Many will not want it because it is corrosive, but someone will.

    Exclamation

    Would have been nice IF you had said Carbine in your original post! Admittedly the difference is really small - about like night and day, But!
    If that headstamp is LC 33 then it is Not US made. As I said Lake City (LC) did Not start production till 1942 - My mother worked there from opening till the summer of 1944.
    Also there was NO M1icon 30 Carbine ammo loaded - even for experimental purposes before 1940 so it would be really nice to see a photo of this round that did not yet exist - anywhere in the world - for 7 years.

    Don't be too hard on yourself. Sometimes the 5 stampings can look like a 3 until you look a little closer.
