Is the gun complete and original? Does it bear any markings identifing past military history? Complete and original in decent shape in .303 British with trashed bore it is $1000 gun. A bit more with specific unit markings and good bore. Rebarrel to .307 Winchester, it becomes $400-$500 gun. Reline the bore keeping it .303 Brit back to $1000 gun and maybe more. The .307 is s 52,000 psi cartridge. The problem with loading down, is the next owner might not. Making the guy who built the gun liable. The .303 Brit is a 45,000 psi gun. The rule of thumb is never chamber a gun for cartridge of higher pressure than the original. |
