    I do not have this rifle in my hands Mr. jmoore, but this Enfield passed Britishicon military head space standards.

    The real question is what brand of ammunition did GBinSC shoot in his enfield and a photo of his fired cases would be worth a thousand words.

    As a side note to this topic and the quality of American cartridge cases, Remington at one time produced our military ammunition at the Lake City Arsenal but lost the contract to Winchester.

    Winchester lost the contract to produce ammunition at the Lake City Arsenal and now ATK Ammunition Systems Group now produces ammunition at the Lake City Arsenal. (The contract went to the cheapest bidder)

    Remington was bought out by Cerberus Capital Management and now sells Serbian made mausers. (Mitchell’s Mausers)

    And Winchester is now owned by General Dynamic’s weapons division.

    Greedy Corporate Companies now run the show and company profits are the bottom line.

    In June 2007, a private equity firm, Cerberus Capital Management, acquired Remington Arms for $370 million, including $252 million in assumed debt. This happened because Remington was millions of dollars in debt and did not report a profit during the years 2003-2005.

    Cerberus Capital Management, L.P. is one of the largest private equity investment firms in the United Statesicon. The firm is based in New York City, and run by 49-year-old financier Steve Feinberg. Former U.S. Vice President Dan Quayle has been a prominent Cerberus spokesperson and runs one of its international units.

    Cerberus Capital Management - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    I wonder what kind of Corporate bonuses are handed out for cost cutting measures at our ammunition plants.

    And Mr. jmoore, its not "All in the Family" in our forums, its "Tom and Jerry"
