    The first 30 was shot on paper. I was apprehensive shooting steel with .303 but there was no damage.

    I remember the first time I shot steel plate as a kid with a .303, with ball of course...was just pig iron or boiler plate. It left huge craters and the lead was a round ball inside the divot. The brass jacket had welded itself to the steel. Very impressive for a 15 year old farmer with no experience...
