Thanks for the WELCOME guys.
Most 303s have been cut down to sports rifles, so its very hard to find a good origional.
I have a BSA and a Lithgow now, looking forward to getting a NZ makings one as well as an Ishapore for my collection.

G'day Kiwi, Welcome to the boards mate. How do you find Canada? i have a mate that lives there, too bloody cold for me, very pretty place though.

Those old MK 3's are great. The first centerfire i ever fired was a MK 3 infact 99% of my shooting when i was a young fella was done with a three o. I have and do own better shooting and fancyer guns but MK 3's will always be my favourite.
