Old 303 cases


Recommended Posts

My boy found these old 303 cases and noticed that one (on left) has a regular round firing pin dent in the primer while the other has a lozenge shaped primer dent. 

After a bit of googling, I think that the lozenge shaped one may be from a Bren gun? 

Can anyone shed some light on this please?

Nice one, thanks for the upload👍

That's a big fat firing pin, I wonder what the logic behind that was?

I have absolutely no idea, i am sure some one here will know, but i am not that man.

  I never had a 303. but i used to have a mate give me old brass he threw out for me to load .410. I got some with the chisel primer dent. I asked he he said they were from bren gun .
