Hey Cat!
I am kind of partial to the 303 myself. Dad's only rifle was a 303 Ross.
I have one identical to his plus three Lee Enfields in 303. A No1 MkIII a No4 MkII
and a No5 MkI.
The only thing I wish were different is the head space. Brass just doesn't last with the Lee Enfields.
Like 1100winger I am a fan of the 6.5 Swede as well. I don't own any right now but I have owned a few and they were GREAT. As good or better then any modern rifle I have owned. Not that I own many modern guns.
I do have a Model 88 in 284, a Anschuts 1416 in 22LR and a Mark X in 30-06.
The rest of my guns are older. Like my 30 30 made in 1964, a Model 43 Winchester in 218, a 255 Winchester in 22 mag that needs a new hammer housing. And a few assorted misc rifles in common calibers.
Clearly I'm not a gun guru or a marksman for that matter. But my guns do what I need them to do. What more can a man ask?
