Did the .303 see much time in India? I always thought it was banned pretty early on? Perhaps I’m wrong, in any case Indian game brings Corbett and his exploits with the 275 and his double to the front of mind.

I wonder if we can examine this further.

Was the .303 British used a lot in India in the first half plus of the 20th Century in India as a civilian hunting cartridge?

I believe it was. But is this true? I believe I have seen some comments about Indians or resident hunters there using the .303.

But there was also the military calibre ban?

What period of time was the military calibre ban active for?

Comments welcome.
