    The rounds are not the problem....the links are.
    I have made them for Bren drums using drill rounds and modified .303 Browning aircraft disintegrating links .
    I cannot remember all the problems I had but there were a few along the way as I recall.
    Apparently the rounds were a hot item for the cartridge collectors, but I cannot see the links and rounds missing in all 4 drums. Maybe they are just caught up inside.
    I will check a few of my drums later today or tomorrow.
    If you cannot find the links let me know as I know I still have some around "THE SHED" (tm) somewhere.

    I have 3 of the 4 followers, and I have got a ton of 303 dummy rounds. What I need are the links that hold the two dummy rounds to the follower/stopper round.

    Any chance you might remember where they are and could I convince you to part with some ???

    If they are truly .303 Browning links, I have about 100 here and would send you some...if that's what you need. PM me once you find out...
