I picked up one bottle each of IMR Red and Target from the LRS. They have all of the new IMR powders on sale for $15.99 to get people to try them. I could't pass that up!

I just looked and JES can do 35-303 rebore. Anyone have any experience with having this done?

So what other cartridges work well in the Enfield without much of a headache? I've seen mention of 444 Marlin and 30-40.
Is 45-70 possible?

I picked this up Saturday as a parts gun. Apparently bubba got busy with a welder years ago. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170403/8645c2fff4aa3ab7c5f872c7b976abbd.jpg

I would like to hear from those of you that have used this boolit loaded in 303 British.

I worked on lube sizing RCBS 30-150-CM that I had cast the other day and then finished casting what was in the pot. Now back to the sizer.

Out of the three powders RedDot shot the cleanest and most accurate for me out of a RIA 1911
