New guy looking for some help

[Alan de Enfield]

Thank you for the info. I realize these are really basic questions and I appreciate you taking the time to answer.



I did a little more reading, and it sounds like magazine feed issues can sometimes be specific to the round being fired. I currently have 4 rounds of Winchester Super that came with the gun. They have rather mashed up soft tips and aren't what I will buy if and when I can actually find ammunition for it. (Going to look at local stores today and hope I get lucky.) I'm thinking I will wait until I have the proper ammo before adjusting. I am now a bit paranoid about not damaging the magazine, so I'd like to adjust it as little as possible.

Thanks Again

Forget Winchester, Remington or S&B ammunition.
If you cannot get hold of any original MkVII ammunition (HXP etc) then the Modern commercial by Prvi Partisan (PPU) is about the best 303 in the market and performs fairly closely to the original MkVII and is manufactured with mil-spec cases.

I've posted these before, but see a comparison of both Rim Thickness and case wall thickness of Win & PPU cases - guess which is which :
