Rereading again, it occurs that the choice of cartridges would not be at all unusual in that the rifles were commissioned by a “Yank” and likely he was most familiar with North American game cartridges of the early smokeless era.
I’d bet that .303 Savage and .405 Winchester ammunition were fairly common at rural general stores in the USA and Canada before WWI,
