    1) I see this as going towards the same argument 7.62 Vs 308 - the original questions was case life in a No4 7.62

    2) What has pressure differences between a 303 and a 7.62 got to do with it ? The original question was case life in a No4 7.62

    It will end up with all of us being told to oil their cases to get better case life, below is the link where ireload2 tried to hijack my case forming thread at Gunboards. This thread was locked down by the moderator and then reopened at my request and then locked down again because of ireload2.

    Please take notice of the fact I mention people talking about the inherent weakness of the Enfield Rifleicon in the posting below and then ask yourself why Alfred brought the subject to this forum, or better yet what are ireload2 and Alfred trying to “accomplish” here.

    Then after my thread was locked down for the second time ireload2 signed back on as “Not a Registered User” so he could answer his own question.
