Checking headspace

[RobertTaylor]

Anyone have 303 british headspace gashes, and could slug a barrel for me? Let me know what you'd charge me

What is the number on the side of the bolt. head right side look should be able to see it with no problem

Wish I had some gauges. I’ve owned a few enfields and still own a no4 mk1 303. It’s my favorite. I shoot it quite a bit. I can slug the barrel for you but not the throat. The throats are wide open on all that I’ve seen anyway. I’ve never checked the headspace. I shoot new brass then check to see how much it stretched. If the stretch is acceptable to me then I only necksize.
