I've been hunting with soft points in SMLEs for 50 years and never noticed a problem. Lotssssssssssssssssssss of dead things out there as a result. If you can get the PPU 174Gn FMJs or HPs (I can't remember what style bullet they have) you will find they shoot to the sight settings on Lee Enfields. Unfortunately, gunshops don't seem to want to stock both types.

Many of these comments seem to be from people who are misinterpreting what I am saying. I am not saying soft points won’t work. I’m not saying it will cause your rifle to not kill a deer. They function! My point is simply that I have noticed Enfields frequently clip a piece off of the soft point tip and my testing showed that this does affect accuracy. Not reliability but accuracy. FMJ was unaffected.

Well full metal jacketed bullets aren't for hunting a deer. I have a No.4 MK 2 ahd it doesn't peel lead from soft point bullets.

I have four Enfield No.4 Mk1 rifles. I shoot the PPU soft points all the time. They all have scopes. I shoot them out to 300 yards and have no problem busting clay pigeons on the berm. I wouldn't say that's an adverse effect on accuracy. I have taken a few deer out to 350 yards with a couple of these rifles. Right behind the shoulder within a couple inches of point of aim. So I can't buy into the "don't use the soft points" thing.

Very good analysis!!! I agree. PPU .303 appears to be the ticket. I first shot the .303 Enfield in 1968. It hits hard with little recoil and will drop'em in their tracks. They shutter and fall like being hit by a ton of bricks.

The most popular, and accurate .303 bullet is made by Hornady and is the 150 gr .312 soft point. Because its .312 it works in shot-out barrels better than the .311 stuff. Thousands of antelope are killed every year in South Africa with this bullet. 43.5 grns of S335 gives 2750 fps out of my no4 mk2. Close to a .308 win with the same weight bullet.

I run a 210gr round nose cast lead projectile in mine behind a moderate load never had a feed problem and use all sorts of brass from S & B, ppu, and old CAC from the 50's never seen issues with inaccuracy from tip wear. Rarely have cases fail even after dozens of reloads and only costs a few bucks for a day at the range or out hunting :)Love my No4 mk1*Longbranch in original military as issued condition. Just like my Dad and Uncles used in WW2

Just bought a Remington Model 34 .22 bolt action rifle and in doing research for an upcoming video there was a lot of talk about this rifles unique lifter system for loading 22 cartridges. Apparently, this rifle is known for being extremely accurate and there is even an NRA target version with quite a reputation for accuracy. The design, which is relevant in our discussion here, is unique because the lifter positions and introduces the cartridge into the receiver without the nose of the bullet touching anything, and this is its huge claim to fame. Designed by C. C. Loomis, extensive research and testing has been done with this rifle, proving the legitimacy of his design. For all those who think a tiny nick in the nose of a bullet from a feed ramp or sharp breech opening doesn’t matter, maybe they should check out all of his research. It’s out there. To all those non-engineers, making unenlightened comments below for years, I accept your apology.

The shoulder doesn't matter; 250 microseconds after the firing pin hits the primer, chamber/barrel pressure is at about 50,000 psi, and the brass is conformal to the chamber wall - so where it started out makes no difference. The only reason it's smaller than the chamber in the first place is so that you can close the bolt even if the chamber is dirty. Also, the presence of corrosive primers, etc. is not relevant if you clean the gun immediately following a range session, which you should do whether you fired corrosive or non-corrosive ammo. It's only relevant in a wartime-like scenario, where the barrel and action interior could stay dirty for weeks in a range of temperatures and humidity. The primer salts left behind are hygroscopic - they will take up moisture from the air, which provides the transport fluid for the galvanic corrosion ions that will rust the metal. Just wash it out and corrosive ammo is fine.

The Problem of the brass is about reusing it and in that case it matters a lot, how much stress the brass has taken. Especially at a point like the neck.

@MrGsteele

5 жыл бұрын

I understand. However, from a single firing, the brass doesn't really get work hardened. Furthermore, if you neck resize only (which you would do anyway, if you only have one gun in the caliber), all subsequent cold working of the shoulder is minimized. Compare a fired round to one out of the box to get an estimate of just how much the shoulder is blown out. Also, if you anneal the necks every 4 or 5 reloads, the cold working is relieved, and the brass will last much longer. Use a Tempilac marker to get the temperature right, restrict the area of heating to the neck and shoulder, and you're good to go. Finally, don't forget that most wildcat cartridge cases are fireformed; that is, the parent case is put in the wildcat chamber and fired, so the case is conformal with the chamber. In some cases, that dramatically stretches the brass - once - blowing out the shoulder, with no ill effects if you neck resize and anneal thereafter. And wildcats are just about always loaded much hotter than the parent round.

Thanks for the video. The old Millsurp ammunition is also very corrosive and you must clean the rifles in a prescribed manner. PPU seems to be accurate enough, but they are FMJ and everything I've read basically says the bullet doesn't expand. I've used the Remington Core-Lokt 150grain and that is also accurate., but still FMJ. Now that we can use rifles in this county I would use the Remington Core-Lokt .303 British 180-Grain.

The Czech (Czechoslovakia doesn't exist anymore) Sellior & Bellot, (Sell-ee-or Bell-lot) neck is actually formed correctly to military spec. That PPU is not. Modern day Federal and Winchester .303 is the same way. Winchester is mil spec, Federal is not. The mil spec neck is just meant so if the chamber has dirt in it, the casing will still chamber and fire. No modern day .303 British ammo can't be used in a Lee Enfield. The ammunition is all designed being used in the millions of surplus Lee Enfields that are now being used as hunting rifles. There is no point for manufactures to not design it to be used in a Lee Enfield. The neck design doesn't mater and isn't critical. The casing head spaces off the rim and not the shoulders. Lee Enfields chambers and bores are very inconsistent. If you want the best results for your Lee Enfield, cast lead bullets are the only way to go due to the various bores with a reduced load. The most common is 172gr cast lead bullets with 13gr (+/- half a grain) of Red Dot shotgun powder. Another common target load is 32cal 100gr cast lead bullets with 7grs of Red Dot shotgun powder. I reload with modern Canadian military brass since I get it for free although you only get about 2 reloads out of it before you scrap it. You can't complain about free brass though. As a note that the Czech brass is correct, The Canadian military brass is exactly the same as it.

Never had an issue with lead tip or "soft point" ammo in my mk 1, i deer hunt with it.

Went shooting my enfield used PPU and it keyholed every single round swapped to Remington and I had one more random key hole but then every other round shot perfect however it was $30 for 20 rounds so idk about using that in the future but I did stock up just in case

Agreed, PPU is amazing!

I have a yugo 24/47 mauser in 8 mm and i have been primarily using ppu sp and i see what you mean but i get excellent accuracy despite what you are saying about the deformation on the tip of the bullet, and a bit of brass and lead build up after about 300 rounds or so.

PPU works fine in my five or so Enfields, my mates Ross and lots of Enfields at the range. One young guy just gave me 100 Sellior and Belliotts to reload, I went and looked and no splits.

Greek HXP is probably the only good milsurp ammo for .303. (so ive heard) its supposed to be "the best." great vid.

303 head spaces off the rim that's why you find different storts of shoulders. Some like to have a tight fit some like to go with a lose fit so it will feed better in any condition. Regardless after its fired it all looks the same and can be reloaded all you want. I use IVI brass and neck size with a 7.62x54r fl die and let it set the shoulder back about .005 to insure feeding.

Yes....one slide up the ramp I do not believe is a problem for a soft point. When hunting and on watch I usually chamber a round by hand to avoid the ramp. If a second shot is required then it will be of course pushed up the ramp by the bolt from the mag and into the chamber. I agree, I would not recommend several trips up the ramp with the same cartridge as they do broom up.

Great video but cannot agree on the soft point issue,my nephew is a full time professional deer culler mostly in Scotland and shoots many 100drds of Deer on the hills with those cartridges many in the 350yrd range with an old sporterised Enfield and never had an issue !.

That is just what a proper .303 neck/shoulder looks like. After you fire it the first time, the case shoulders will be fireformed to the chamber on your rifle. Most reloaders do not full length resize, but use a collet neck sizing die, which does not mess with the shoulder. The biggest issue for the Lee Enfield is headspacing. The .303 British is rimmed cartridge. It is not headspaced from the shoulder of the chamber, but from the face of the breech. If your headspacing is too loose, the fix is to put in a longer bolt head ..... IF you can find one. As for the feeding problems with soft point, by VERY small increments bend the forward feed lips up on your magazine with pliers. But be careful not to go too much. There is a tipping point. Up here in Canada myriads of deer, moose, elk and bear have been taken with Lee Enfields shooting SP bullets that we can buy in pretty much any hardware store.

the enfeilds have excessive headspace, a lot more than the average military rifle. That's why you get either, case head separation, or cases have to be full length sized a lot more frequently than normal. Reliable feeding was a concern, and besides, they only shot the round once, so who cares about inconsistent shoulders. I tried to load RN bullets and they jammed on the feed ramp. The Lee's weren't designed for SP bullets, they were designed for FMJ. Who cares about the shoulder... fire a round and look at the shoulder. There's nothing left of it due to the headspace.

I still stick with FMJ for anything .303.

I don't shoot milsurp ammo fearing corrosive powder although they could be made useable by pulling the bullet and reloading them with modern powder and primersthereby salvaging case and bullet. I compared modern PPU necks to necks of some 1943 milsurp ammo that I have and they're nearly identical. I've reloaded lots of PPU .303 British cases with SP bullets only because FMJ bullets are generally not stocked where I buy my reloading supplies. You're correct about the lead point being slightly damaged when chambering SPs from the magazine. Small lead divots get taken out near the point. Whether this missing piece of lead is sufficient to affect accuracy can be determined. I will load each SP directly into the receiver instead of loading them through the magazine and will report any improvement in accuracy.

I've shot 303's for over a decade both in competition and hunting. I've never, ever found any soft point to be marred by chambering it. I think you need to polish your feed ramp! Also, the difference in accuracy you are noticing is much more likely to be about the fact that the FMJ's are a flat based spitzer which is what the MKVII military ammunition was, whilst the soft points are boat tails. Enfields have notoriously loose bores and for this reason flat based rounds that offer more surface area for the grooves to bite into than boat tails often shoot better out of them. This is exacerbated even more if you have one with a two groove barrel (a lot of Long Branch and Savage No.4's have these). I've seen a two groove barrelled No.4 that would keyhole BT projectiles but group flat base FMJ like a champ.

Yeah, can’t go wrong with Remington....the FMJ is better for it in my opinion.

how bout converting your Enfield to 7.62x54r??, join us on the mosin side. 20 cent surplus ammo and .30 cent new commercial! I think the conversion is easier than you might think, both shoot exactly a .311 claibr bullet, not a .308 like other 7.62 / .30 cal rounds. The 7.62x54r is just a little wider on the rim, just need to bore your reciever out slightly 1/1000 th of an inch. kzread.info/dash/bejne/mmmYm6OOc8jTiqg.html

.303 head spaces on the rim not the neck,

I thought I mentioned that. Regardless, the neck shouldn’t have to fire form to the chamber by a tremendous amount. That’s not good.

the 1903 Springfield 30-06 is a better gun enfields have lose stocks and don't have a claw action

Enfields are a British rifle God save the Queen

New Enfield owner, had no idea, almost made a mistake. Thanks

Nice to see a positive reply to this video for a change

This is pure bullshit especially if you're hunting.
