303 hunter
Member
Has anyone had any experience deer hunting with 303 British? If so, what loads did you use? I have bought some PPU 150 grain ammo - need feedback?
Yep, & it is a Savage. Accuracy, MOA I have no idea, but with that scope I can hit a gal. milk jug at a half mile, here is what it looked like when I found it at a yard sale for 15 bucks.Very nice rifle. Is that No. 4? What kind of accuracy do you get at 100 yards?
Your accuracy will open up a bit, that is a under statement & I would not recommend it.You can actually reload 308 bullets in 303 brass. Your accuracy will open up a bit but I don't suspect you will see a significant difference. but you never know till you try it.
I have reloaded PRIVI multiple times and it is nice brass. Stress relieve the necks and don't FL size it if you don't have to. 303 Brit chambers are huge and if you have a 308 die just necksize it and it will last much longer.

Why do that when you could just get one of these, it`s a Enfield 2A 7.62 NATO.....Not to hijack, but would it be possible to slap a .308 barrel with a .303 Brit chamber onto a .303 action? The cost of reloading would probably catch up to the barrel's price in a few thousand rounds.
