Well I've delved back down the reloading rabbit hole and bought a Lee Loader for the old three-oh..... Used to load for it years ago. Be fun to have a play again. What have I done ha ha :)

I started this thread a while ago; lots of helpful 303 info from members in it :)

I used to use a Lee Loader and loaded Hornady 174 gr round nose projectiles. Not a long range round but sure knocked them over!
I found that the 150gr Highland shoots well in my SMLE. 3" groups at 100 with a 2.5x scope and 16.5 barrel, I'm sure it will do better now I have the 3=9 on it. My old eyes aren't as flash at 100m...
