Anyone know where to get good surplus .303 British?

[doughboy334]

Ammoman, J&G, and Midway seem to be out of surplus and only have commercial posted (yikes, around $15 for 20 rounds). Anyone care to share where they get their surplus Enfield ammo? Thanks.

Surplus 303 British dried up a long time ago. Your best bet is to reload.

Should be some at the Cow Palace on the 17-18

To the OP..The BEST 303 out there is the Greek 303 (HXP headstamp) if you EVER find any .. buy as MUCH as you can!!!!! Hock the house... sell you fisr born!! but get the Greek ammo!!

I was going to recommend Samco, as well. Also, Prvi Partizan is about $11-12 per 20. Cheaper than most commercial ammo, and good quality. The brass is reloadable, too.

On that note, I'm glad I bought my .303 surplus before the Obama election. It's not British though, but Pakistani.

Thanks guys will check the Cow Palace for sure and definitely will think about reloading... Need to clear a workspace first and see if my dad is cool with the idea haha

If so, don't be a stranger to the reloading sub-forum. Me, AR15 Barrels, and a bunch of other great people hang out here willing to help out a new reloader with any questions.

Leaving it in the sun to warm up before use apparently decreases the number of "click.............. bang" instances..

Heads up, I stopped by my local gun store, City Arms in Pacifica, and they got POF .303 created in 64'. I got one box (32 cartridges) for $11.95. I'll tell you if it hangfires or not when I take the Enfield out to the range
