Quote "A 1917 with an original barrel should shoot .311 bullets more accurately than they ever shot .308 bullets.  That is why they shoot so well with cast bullets."
That is why I had the .311 reamer made. I had shot 303 bullets before the neck area was damaged and thought they worked well. My first reamer was standard 30 06 and now It will not chamber 303 bullets.
This is the second Enfield my father purchased, he bought one and his friend liked it so much my dad gave it to him. He then bought this one that was new in the cosmoline for $7.00. It was made from parts, some Remington and some Eddystone.

Thanks for the tip on the 280 ross and 276 Enfield, I had never seen that info before.
