I know this has been addressed before, but I am looking for a case or two of 303 British. Was looking for surplus but from what I have seen on here that sounds like an impossibility.
Any ideas about how to get 500 or 1000 rounds as cheap as possible?
 
I found from Personal experience to stay away from the P.O.F. 303(Pakistani) Ammunition.
I bought 200 rounds and about 50 were dud's.
The only time I would buy it would be to remove the Bullet to use for reloading.
The problem is the Primers do not alway work and the Bullet may fire a couple of seconds after You pull the trigger or not fire at all.
I will buy 303 British when I can find British made but I usually just load My own and have had no problems.

That is because you bought POF surplus. Ammo has to be absolute crap before India or Pakistan surplus it out, hence your issues. Never assume first run production ammo is anything like the surpls sold in the US market, they will take anything down there.
 
There's a guy here in BC who deals with Igman working out of his home. He has good prices. Last time I checked he had tons of .303 in stock. I don't know what he charges for shipping but if you want his email, PM me.
