[QUOTE="aarondhgraham, post: 4146078, member: 13337"] I would also like to shoot a British .303 again,,, I ordered one from Alden's catalog back in the early 60's. If I recall correctly it cost me $14.99 + $1.00 shipping,,, About three weeks after ordering it I got off the school bus,,, To find the rifle leaned against the front door of my house with a shipping tag on the trigger guard. The army surplus store down the road sold mil-surp ammo by the round,,, It was 10 cents per round for .303, 8mm Mauser, and a few others,,, Or a bag of 20 for $1.75. I remember trying to do that Mad Minute thing,,, I was only able to get ten rounds off in a minute a few times,,, The recoil was just too much for my skinny 11 year old frame to handle. Aarond .
