Dip your 303 cartridges "in the service fashion" in oil and shoot them. This will prevent the case from gripping the chamber and prevent case head separations.

The basic problem with all the Lee Enfield actions is due to being rear locking, the bolt compresses much more than front lockers. In fact, with over pressure charges, the bolt bows! With a dry case in a dry chamber the front of the case sticks in the chamber while the back end has to stretch because the bolt is compressing.
Under no condition load over pressure cartridges in Lee Enfields. This is not a strong action, in fact about a decade ago the British NRA was sending out warnings about metal fatigue for Lee Enfields used by competition shooters. The last No 4 MKII's were built was around 1955, which is 68 years ago. The war time actions (the war ended in 1945) were built under the
"get it out the door" incentive system. Given the nation could fail within the calendar year, a decades long lifetime was of less importance then getting the rifle out the door. A rebarreled action that went through a rebuild program has used up one barrel of fatigue lifetime. Various sources state the maximum pressure of the service cartridge was around 44,000 psia. It is best to use loads in the 40,000 psia range and provide margin if the cartridges are used in hot weather. You can see in the reference, that the 303 Brit pushed a 174 grain bullet 2440 fps. And no faster!
