Why handload? watch this.

10 shot groups with two types of surplus military ball and two handloads, one with match primers and one without.

Thanks for posting, Art. I have a bunch of WWII M2 ball which can barely stay on the paper from a non accurized Garand. PM sent.

Careful, onthe sizer adjustment.

The BA specified that the chamber of the Enfields, wher to be a 1/16the of inch to allow any round picked up from teh ground [no matter how dirt} to be loaded and fired, seeing that the case rim controlled the headspace. So basically Neck-size the fired cases to get best case life.
