Is there a good place to check pricing and information on surplus .303. I have several Enfield that carried home and passed on. They came with ammo, some still in their soft paper boxes, some in stripper clumps, and some loose. All had been stored in dry basement in ammo can. I shot a about 300 rounds from various cans and some boxes and all but 1 shot find with high accuracy. That round needed to fired a second time and went off fine.

I like to be able to figure out what date code and country of origin. Is there any site out there for that? What I heard is that surplus ammo are supposed to be very accurate but are a pain to clean. Any info would be appreciated.

Thank you buddy. I have several hundreds round of this stuff in ammo can as well as stripper clips and original boxes. I keep hearing that the surplus stuffs from the great wars are match quality but a pain to clean. Lowest prices I found is $1.25 so I don’t necessarily want to shoot it like it’s .22 lr.
