Erm, wrong way round. Yer 30-06 is somewhat similar to our .303

Bill!
The #4 mark 1, is a Short Magazine Lee Enfield "SMLE" .303 British
Rifle! It
was made by Savage Arms for export to Britain under Lend Lease, during
WWII.
Because they were made in this country and exported, they were required
to
be marked U.S. Property! You should see what looks like an asterisk next
to
the marking that says U.S. Property. That is what is the best clue to
the
origin of the rifle! The .303 British round is very similar to our
.30-06 in
performance!
If you have any other questions regarding these rifles, get in touch
with me
off the list! Good luck!
Longhunter7 out!
