My 1st centerfire rifle was a SMLE with a cannister of 400 cordite rounds tossed in for $40.

It was the same rig my grandfather carried at Gallipoli. He was wounded, but one of the few survivors from the 18th Battalion, 100 years ago.

He died at 82 still carrying a Turkish bullet after sustaining a chest shot.

The .303 has an astonishing record.


When truth is ignored, it does not change an untruth from remaining a lie.
