Hi:

Anyone know of a source for Military .303 British Ammo?

Thanks,
Jimmy

Nope, but Winchester's 180 grain softpoint is a good hunting round. Unlike Remington's equivalent, it has a spitzer bullet, more like Mk. VII ball ammo. Should shoot to the sights better.

Check the gunshows.

Aim Surplus , Ammoman , J&S Sales and others usually have Pakistani surplus. I've been finding bulk lots of British GB headstamped at gunshows.

There was some boxer-primed Greek .303 with an HXP headstamp a little while back - maybe some left at gun shows.

Given the times we find ourselves in, I might be tempted to get a stash of sealed ball or A/P stuff just to "have". But I'd concentrate on making sure I began assembling Boxer primed stuff, along with saving my brass. There are a few tricks that need to be done to military brass to reload it, but once done a cheap single stage Lee or the like could pay for itself in no time anymore! My Dad and I once called reloading our "wintering over" activity. But he said the Eskimo up in the Aleutians he encountered during WWII called reloading the 5 to 10 rounds of brass they had with a Lee hand held plier press "survival"!

Has anyone seen any of those Berdan type primer angle head de-capping tools anywhere?

S&B has a load that is as close to a military spec FMJ as I have been able to find since the Greek surplus dried up.

Privi Paritzan has a 174 gr FMJ listed. I have not seen any available in this area.

(Anything but)Cheaper Than Dirt shows Wolf Gold 174 gr FMJ as being available.
