I've spotted a Mk 4 No 1 sporter at a price of $150. The rifle looks pretty clean for a milsurp, but I haven't inspected the bore yet. Cosmetically acceptable so far. I have an 03A1 and a K11, so like going milsurp. While I'm thinking about it, I have an Arisaka in .257 Roberts (from my FIL)...
What do y'all think about a Enfield for deer/elk/etc...? I see no reason why the .303 wouldn't be just fine. I hate to pass up a good looking rifle, even though it means adding another caliber to the ammo shopping list.
Finding ammo for the K11 is already mail order "only", i.e. I might get lucky and find some GP11 if I walk into enough gunshops. How scarce is .303? I thought I read that there's no milsurp ammo any more.
I could always buy a Mosin instead... Opinions?
