There is always a market. SAMCO global arms was selling some not too long ago. Should give you an idea what shooting 303 surplus is going for.
However, if you give us the head stamp info, we can judge if you have any sort of special 303 that might be worth more.0 -
There are three markings on it 54, GB and 7. 0 -
Well its British made in 1954. Here is the info on the manufacturer.
G, GB or GBF
Greenwood and Batley, Leeds, UK. This company manufactured Ammunition from an early stage, finally ceasing production in the late 1950s. They had a filling factory at Abbey Wood and later during the 1939-45 war a filling factory at Farnham. The headstamp code G, denoting manufacturer, should not be confused with G as in GIV indicating a tracer cartridge. During WW1 Greenwood & Batley are known to have produced in excess of 705 million .303 Mk 7 cartridges. They are known to have manufactured .303 cartridges in... Ball, Black powder Mk 2
