Ammunition .303 British


It was founded in 1887 and the British Army was established a year later. The 13.9-gram round had a round-tipped projectile and was originally used for black dust, until 1892, when it began to be used for smokeless dust. A shot with a sharp tip in 1910 replaced a shot with a round tip. This lead-core projectile, also known as the Mk.VII, had a tip filled with aluminum or synthetic fibers. The .303 caliber was originally designed for Lee-Metford Mk.I. rifles, but these were replaced in 1895 by more modern Lee-Enfields, with deeper bore grooves, especially. This caliber was obsolete after the Second World War, so it was replaced in the British army by a standard caliber NATO 7.62x51 mm (.308 Winchester).
