.303 British

.303 British Ammo For Sale - Top Ammo Retailers Available

The .303 British or 7.7×56mmR, is a .303-inch caliber rimmed rifle cartridge first developed in Britain as a black-powder round put into service in December 1888 for the Lee-Metford rifle. In 1891 the cartridge was adapted to use smokeless powder.

In 1891 the cartridge was adapted to use smokeless powder. It was the standard British and Commonwealth military cartridge from 1889 until the 1950s when the 7.62×51mm NATO replaced it. Canadian Ellwood Epps, the founder of Epps Sporting Goods, created an improved version of the .303 British. It has better ballistic performance than the standard .303 British cartridge.

The original .303 British service cartridge employed black powder as a propellant and was adopted for the Lee-Metford rifle, which had rifling designed to lessen fouling from this propellant. The Lee-Metford was used as a trial platform by the British Committee on Explosives to experiment with many different smokeless powders then coming to market, including Ballistite, Cordite, and Rifleite.
