First Post - Lee Enfield wannabe collector

[STG-98]

I was just kidding about the M1A shooters, but they do consistently complain about 7.62 costs, and go through it like mad practicing for those matches.

.303 more expensive than 7.62. ? Yeah, Guess it's been a while since I bought .303 Mid nineties was last I purchased any in the box. I used to reload it and still have about 100 rounds of my old reloads and a few more hundred good brass. Time to bust out the press again.

7.62 has gone up quite a bit in the last couple years. Did not know .303 had as well.

Good MkVII .303 is getting kind of scarce. New Prvi Partizan MkVIIIz ammo isn't horribly expensive, but not all Enfields like it, accuracy wise. Greek .303 was good, but it's about dried up. South African MkVIII ammo was good too, but Berdan primed. Also hard to find any more.

My last .303 ammo purchase was some wretched 1950s British surplus (as noted above). Before that was a case of Prvi.

It would be super if some bullet mfg. would go to the trouble of producing some real MkVII type projectiles.
