    Not sure about the Canadianicon .303, but lots of Canadian wartime ammo was non-corrosive.......DUE TO THE PRIMING USED, NOT THE POWDER. The S&B commercial, Winchester, HXP are all NON-corrosive primed.

    Thanks for the post JonnyC. I have been looking and looking for info, for several days at this point, that is way I posted. Do you have any resources (links\websites) that you used to figure this out (for my future reference)? or are you using your personal experience with the different rounds?

    Just wanted to learn in case I run into this situation again the in future.

    Thanks Again
