I haven't looked in awhile but if you see the Greek surplus HXP boxer, non-corrosive, it's worth the premium.

The Greek is long gone.South African(PMP) is getting hard to find.If you find any HOTSHOT it is good.Sellier& Belloit is good.
Out of necessity I started reloading .303.Much better accuracy with it and you don't run out.

i still find the HXP for $25 a bandolier. last time i bought it it had a very strong musty odour to it and after i fired it the inside of the cases was green and corrodied. could have been that that batch was exposed to water for an extended period. i'll have to be more careful next time. didn't harm the rifle though and cleaned up fine, chucked it in with the rest of my brass.

I seen 303 brittish ammo at Southern Ohio Gun in the FNM brand its new ammo.  I'll look for the flyer and post the price later because i'm in the middle of moving.                                                       BigBill

I have 303 surplus ammo in a wooden crate and some in 32rd boxes.  I think i purchased the crate from www.sportsmansguide.com  and the crate has a sealed metal can in it.  Funny i have never shot my 303 yet.

I looked at sportsmansguide.com and they have Sellier & Bellot 303 180gr FMJ for $8.17 a box.  #WX2-85639

At www.natchezss.com  they have sellier & bellot too, its 10boxes of 303 britt ammo for $7.48 a box  #ZYSPA30303

If you have a C&R, Century has their commercial stuff (PMP or Hotshot) for about $6 a box and every 3 or 4 months they put it on special for $5 a box.  As good as any other 303 I have fired.

You have to spend $75, and order 200 rounds, to get the dealer price but I usually find something else I need, or think I need!
