old 303 ammo

[Rowdy]

While the rifle was designed for Mk.VI ammo the HV means that the sights were altered to take Mk.VII so that is what the army used.
The silver jackets are a nickel based alloy which was replaced by the copper based alloy in the later ammunition as it fouled less and was easier to clean.
