Whoo, hoo,

<----303

Should I buy an Enfield in .303?

Or should I save for MORE AMMO for the guns I DO have (none in .303)

.303 is hideously expensive compared to .223.

Want to buy mine?  No4 MkI, $150. Has a detachable scope mount.

Yeah, get an Enfield... they're great rifles, and peices of history.

My No4MK1 was made at Fazakerley in May of '44.  I bet it was carried in Northern France, and hopefully poured out some whoop ass against Hitler's forces.

Man, I don't know what it is about Enfield rifles.  I buy the things and don't ever keep them.
I don't know if its the ammo or just the design of the rifle.  I bet I have owned 10 of them over the past ten years with the last one being a jungle carbine.  It seems some importers flood the market with them and then they dry up.  I normally buy one during the flood and sell them during the drought periods.  I just don't like them enough to hang on to one too long with no particular reason.
Just one of those "eh" things for me I guess.
