I'm kind of curious about the Enfield 303 rifle. I've never seen one in person. I have heard ammo can be hard to get etc. I'm curious how these rifles do for accuracy etc. I do reload but the way components are it would probably be a while until I could find supplies to reload if I had one. I know someone that does have one that I could aquire if I absolutely wanted it. Not saying I'm going to make him an offer or anything. But I am kind of curious about them.
I'm just curious for the sake of being curious. What would be a decent price to pay for a non collector? How good of a rifle are they? I know they have been around forever but how do they stack up to say a German 8mm Mauser? How hard is it to get ammunition/reloading components in normal times?
I definitely don't want one so bad I would pay stupid prices or anything. I'm not a collector but I do have some old milsurp rifles from the WW2 era.
I remember being a kid visiting my grandparents every Sunday and looking through the news paper. I would always look through the big 5 ad and remember seeing the Enfield's, Mausers,nagants and a lot of rifles for cheap that are now collectors.
Like I said just curious is all. I probably won't act on it unless it's a smoking good deal.
