That's a lot of options there...

.303 are mostly sniper rounds, aren't they?

I suppose in a way they are - that sort of war in trenches thing was all about snipers and such, but they used a lot of tracers and incendiaries in aircraft guns when they were trying to shoot down Zeppelins that were bombing England in WW1.

I guess I confused it for the .308 anyway

I've only recently started actually reading a caliber number when I see one. It was all just gibberish to me before that...

you are realy into bullets and stuff like this - right?

may try to set the typo under the bullets - this will clean your poster.
the shadows, reflections and colors are very good - like always!

Thanks - I'm 'sampling' a few from each sort of ammo that I find, so these won't cover everything, but enough to show the variety I hope...

Pretty famous cartridge!

The British loadings had a wood plug at the tip. This caused the bullet to de-stabilize on impact and blow a large hole in the target.

A clever circumvention of the rules of land warfare. [link]
