    I NEVER worried about 303 brass. Even with all that's been said about neck sizing and O rings and all, I fired mine until I could see the ring start and out it went. Maybe 3 loads...just not worth worrying about.

    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.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Well, you gotta admit, you lot gave the poms a hard time once.
    Those cases are suffering from age, splitting. If they make it past the first firing ok, then neck anneal, it will sort that problem out.
    As to berdan primer supply, another forum recently discussed this problem.
