I have a line and dibs on purchasing a case of Mk7 .303 ammo. It is in a wooden crate...unopened. I trust the guy totally in terms of integrity...work with him, known him for years, shoot with him, etc. However, he is no .303 ammo expert so before I chunk down cash, I want some facts.
I am seeking a sample by way of a case from his opened case and a picture of the markings on the box.
All of that said: Can ammo this old (WWII he says) be any good? Does the wooden box sound right? He says he think it is in a fabric belt? Does that make sense?
I do not shoot my Enfield a lot but commercial ammo for it is hard to find where I am and expensive. This acquisition is not cheap but this box will last me a very long time so I want to know what I am getting into before I buy.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
