Thread: Resurgence of interest in the old "Three Oh"?

It is thought that only 28 were ever made in 303 British
It looks like at least 5 are known to be in NZ
So that's a fairly high number of the original 28

And this will be shot and it will be hunted with
I expect it to be pretty effective
First up are some new old stock Norma 180 grain spire points

Goddamit where do you find these things. I would kill for that one. But is it for blackpowder or cordite does it say on the barrel?
