    Question Ammo Question

    Picked up some brass at the range marked A80 on top and 7.62 R1M1 under. Looks like NATO 7.62, but will not size with standard dies. The diameter of the case is a just slightly larger than a standard 7.62 X 51. Just wondering what the difference is.

    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).

    It is South African 7.62x51 Nato/.308 Win. It may have been fired in a chamber on the "generous" side and have expanded a bit.
