Up for sale are a selection of 303, I am keeping some but have enough to share!
Shipping is an option for any of this. I do come down to Vancouver WA from time to time so option to pickup when I am down is possible. Open to potential offers but price is pretty low already!
Trades are possible but not really looking for anything. Silver coins are always a trade option.
FULL DISCLOSURE, Iranian 303 can be somewhat spotty. Hang fires are possible as the priming in these was a bit suspect. These are cordite loaded from a long time ago. If you need strippers the components alone are worth the asking purchase price. See attached photo's
To be more precise one of the members over on Gunboard helped me with this about this ammo:
5096 . 8 bandolier of 50, Iranian 303 British FMJ, on stripper clips of 5, $35 per bandolier
5097 . 10 empty 303 British clips $1 each (usually go for around $2.50 each)
Other 303
HXP 303 British surplus 174gr FMJ, Boxer primed, Brass cased - supposed to be non-corrosive. If I am reading things correctly most of this is from the mid 1970's production.
comes with stripper clips of 5 and in Bandoliers. There are 50 rounds per bandolier if I remember correctly.
Asking $50 per bandolier.
I do have some other commercial 303 I can sell. Just ask if looking for hunting rounds or other 303. Happy to share.
Pictures available if you really need them.

303 British Surplus headstamp ID
Hi All, I tried to figure this one out but I am stumped. Figured I would see if one fo the smarter members can figure it out or at least point me in the right direction. This came in a bandolier and stripper clips. Thanks.www.gunboards.com
From an old post by Doc AV on another forum:

NOT 7,9!!! Bullet is 7,9mm ( .311") approx, but it is a " .303" calibre.
Very common Surplus ammo 1990s…quality mediocre.
