What a find! Original .303 British ammunition stored for many years in a military bunker in Greece. This is real military ammunition, not commercial loads; it is so accurate and loaded to Military specifications. Exact tolerances are required and that is exactly what this .303 British ammunition delivers.
Founded in 1874, Pyrkal, known as "Greek Powder and Cartridge Company". As the main producer of ammunition and explosives in the country, they have been a crucial supplier during all the military conflicts, and historically a well-established exporter to five continents.
This is true Military Spec MK7Z Spitzer .303 British! This ammo has a 174-grain Full Metal Jacket bullet, brass cased, boxer primed, non-corrosive, and is reloadable. The Greek HXP (HXP is the headstamp code for the Greek Powder and Cartridge Company of Athens) .303 British is one of the most sought-after surplus ammunition still available. This is the ammo you need if you shoot a Lee-Enfield, Lee-Metford, or a Martini-Enfield rifle.
This is original military ammunition that is 35 plus years old. The brass and bullets may have tarnish, surface corrosion, pitting, and discoloration as you would expect with ammunition that has been stored in a Greece bunker (see product photos). As with any surplus ammunition, each and every round should be carefully inspected before use and we recommend cleaning your rifle after use.
