I like how you can see the bullet fly
Shock wave
Fascinating
ya and he was really stacking them in there, ha ha looked like several different loads and didn't matter. nice rifle and shooting
This can be even more visible on humid or even damp conditions since the pressure wave condenses moisture and can leave a vapour trail that lingers in low wind conditions, didn’t feel real when i saw it first hand
@@TheRobby1971 Yep. Really only tracers are visible in flight
Just some friendly advice in case you didn’t know. I have a No1 and a No4. If you do use Stripper clips, make sure that the rims overlap each other starting from the first one. So always load it going from one side to the other, instead of just sticking one in the middle and adding one on each side. That will cause rim lock. So just make sure the rims overlap.
dudud you don't need to load from both sides
That's actually incorrect. The proper military loading method is exactly how he showed it. The rims are supposed to be staggered in the clip. Rim lock is also avoidable by design in the magazine, by simply pushing the rounds down further with the thumb and releasing. This will cause the rim to jump in front. Military produced .303 ammunition also have a slightly rounded edge on the rim to aid this issue.
In terms of loading the clip into the magazine, he also did this incorrectly by using the Russian method of prying the rounds downward with the one on top. This is not necessary with .303 and will actually cause more issues, with one of them being rim lock.
@@ArnhemKnight88 dudud, rims down up down up etc
@@upsidedowntypist6799 yes, that's the correct way.
I’m just saying that’s the way my two like it. Every time I try it the down up down up way, I usually get rim lock or get jammed, and since I’ve tried overlapping them, they haven’t had either of those problems since.
I could sense the anger when the stripper clip didn’t work.
Yeah because he loaded it wrong
because HE had no idea what he was doing and LOADED it wrong ! 3 up, 2 down and she works a dream EVERY time !
NOBODY does high quality shooting content like you…! Simple yet Perfect ! Keep ‘em comin’ 😃👍
Sure, with poor skills. He's not practicing so the tech does work instead of himself.
@@marcinnowakowski997 I'd take short videos over a 1-2 hrs long video of hickock talking to himself with only 1-2 minutes of actual shooting.
@@bryanleeyf87 You got what you want. Hickock is also a story teller, a good one.
@@bryanleeyf87 yet he has millions of subscribers, go figure

When the stripper clip jams the gun:
My dissapointment is immeasuarable and my day is ruined.
Nasty old ones. Fresh ones work notably better (IMHO)
doesn't the way you stack the rims have to do something with that? The video creator seemed to not stack them as Bloke on the Range and Alex C from TFB TV have stated in the past.
Yeah it hurts
@@cantgameright Actually he loaded the Enfield charger clips the correct way: down, up, down, up, down.
Either the charger clips are busted and/or poorly refinished, or the rims on those Winchester rounds may not be properly chamfered or beveled.
I do notice that the bullets are a bit too long, they barely fit into the magazine.
Bloke on the Range used rounds with FMJ spitzer bullets and mil-spec brass. He even tried loading the charger clips the incorrect way, which is similar to how you load a Mosin clip, and it still feeds fine into the magazine, thou not as smooth as if loaded the correct way. Even if you get a rim-lock, it's not a big deal due to how the Enfield magazine is designed.
Idk why, but I love old bolt action rifles, they look soo cool. I am really not a fan of firearms, but these look soo appealing, more like a sort of cool trophy than a weapon meant to kill
I have always regretted selling the one I had. They're a wicked accurate rifle
I happen to have purchased your rifles younger brother, a 1942 Lithgow Arsenal SMLE when I was 18. My father and I were at a gun store and saw this absolutely beaten to heck rifle in the used gun rack. Being a collector and competition shooter, he looked it over. Turns out it still had the rack markings from a military school on it barely legible. He checked the bore and it was pristine, didn't look like it had been fired since proofing it in 1942. The action was smooth and crisp also with a fantastic trigger.
Well I took it home and it would do about a 2.5 inch group at 100 hards, we being the hobby gunsmith we are, dad looked up how the British competition shooters would accurize them and found that they would hollow out the stock around the barrel and pack cork inside, we took a slightly different approach and dad went to town on it with a dremel tool to the point where I was outright scared and we then proceeded to put enough acraglas in it to bed about 10 actions, basically made it a fiberglass stock with a VERY thin wood veneer on it locking the action into the wood like bench rest shooters do and surprisingly the trigger went from being a 2 stage trigger with about a 6 lb break, to a glass break crisp 3 lb single stage.
We went to our local wally world and picked up 10 boxes of hunting ammo and I tried it out and with my then 19 year old eyes put 10 rounds into a ragged hole that measured 1.15 inches at 100 yards, we then took it up to a NRA high power match and I proceeded to place 12th out of 87 competitors.
We had one of the top High power shooters in the country come up and watch us during the slow fire portion, he asked if we reused the boxes the ammon originally came in thinking we had handloaded all our shells, when we told him we were using off the shelf hunting ammo bc wally world has a special, he snickered, that was until by shear luck, I put the next 2 rounds in the bulls during the 600 yards slow fire. Yeah, we were the talk of the match after that, still puts a smile on my face thinking about it to this day.
Never been fired but 'beat to hell'.
Yeah, no.
One of the best battle rifles ever made in my opinion.
yes, way ahead of its time.
I am a smle afficionado and have collected dozens in my life, but the 98k mauser was the best military rifle built and designed by Paul mauser which design is seen in many modern sporting rifles today like in Winchester m70 or ruger and several other brands.
and it's sexier than my GF and twice as nice
It is a nice rifle but I prefer the M1 garand. The aussie rifle would be #2 followed by the German mauser#3
It's nice this rifle has big magazine never seen from other countries.If I were a soldier,big magazine is very reassuring for combat situation.
So sharp and clean. I love it.
There is a special place in my heart for WW2 bolt-action rifles, especially for the Lee Enfield and Kar98k.
Love the way the magazine locks in, straight upwards and then rocked back into position
That’s what I’m talking about!! I love old battle rifles. I inherited one from my Dad. He collected old battle rifles.
Where’s the phased plasma rifle in the 40 watt range?
Hey just what you see, pal.
@@ProtossExecutor100 da oozi nein millimedah
I have a mkI, mkIV and two mkV’s plus a P14 here in the states. Love the .303, it’s a great round.
When the stripper clip jams the gun but you got to see him load the magazine :
"Like it says in the book, we are blessed and cursed."
-Big Smoke
that thing is one of the cleanest SMLE's ive ever seen. Both my #1 and #4's are fairly "well loved" but they shoot great!
It's been refurbished and reblued
Here in adelaide sth Australia in 1962 you could buy a brand new lithgow mk3 vacuum packed in cosmoline for 10 quid, we didn't have decimal currency until 1965, with the cosmoline cleaned off the wood work was similar to the rifle being used here but with all matching nos.
I don't know why I watch these videos. But I really feel it!! Thanks
Excellent Misha Thank you so much 🙏🙏🙏🤝😉👍
My .303 was made in Australia also but it was built in 1917, No.1 Mk.III. It's in good shape for a 106 year old rifle . I get good hit's at 200 yards +. I learn how to use the stripper clips. Works well for me. Good video.
I didn’t know the Lee Enfields magazine could be removed like that, also I Really like how I can see the Bullet Flying
That looks like one of the refurbished SMLEs that John Jovino (JJCO) imported in the 90s. They imported military refurbished rifles, and then ones like these with brand new coachwood stocks that look almost orange. Not all of those coachwood stocks had the proper copper recoil plates installed in the forend like the factory Lithgow rifles did, and shooting the rifle without them will cause the soft coachwood to crack and split, ruining the stock. I would recommend verifying they are there before that beautiful rifle ends up damaged. Its not a terribly difficult fix.
John Jovino. There's a name from the past. I remember their store in downtown Manhattan with the totally politically incorrect sign.
I found incredible how videos of killing tools can be relaxing
That grouping 👀💯🔥
Excellent video loved every second of it
I like your vids. Always entertaining👍
Nicely restored !
Gorgeous piece of kit, nice shooting as well. Cheers from Australia 👍
Don’t lift the cartridge with your index finger when stripper loading. It causes the rims to jam. Just push down hard with your thumb at the base. I have a 1916 Lithgow SMLE that I use for competitive shooting and I’ve never had an issue loading from a stripper. That’s a beautiful example, my guess is it would be one of the units that was stored at holdsworthy barracks then sold off by their government when they replaced them with the SLR.
I remember in the Army rag in 1993/early94 they were clearing them out for $50 each IIRC. As a single guy living on barracks I had no use for one nor anywhere to store it.
@@mangoman9290 and now you’d be hard pressed to find one for under $1500.
1:48 that reload is cursed
The classic instrument of "Rule 303" from Australian military law... (paraphrasing Breaker Morant)
This is the gun the Aussies used against the emus in the great emu wars of Australia. Can't be reloading for so long mate emus can fuck you up by that time.
Nice video
Nice rifle. Great recording downrange that shows the shockwave of the bullet.
Went to the Lithgow arms museum last month.. it was Incredible to say the least!
One thing is for Shure, the Lee Enfield series of rifles was the progress of refinement by the time they made the No 4 Mk-2's in the late 40's. they are the most advanced bolt action rifle's made in history. The world changed though with the adoption of self loading rifles and its design advantages for military use. peace - Dave
Much love from Australia man
真是一把優美的步槍，彈著點集中，顯得它槍身狀況極佳
Now imagine going through that messy reload in the middle of combat with 100 angry Japanese soldiers shooting at you.
Removing the magazine and manually loading it, or flubbing up the stripper clip reload because you're using improper methods?
As an Australian this activates something in my brain
Keep the longer videos coming
If you've ever played the old Xbox game Fable , the guards in that game would shout with a British accent "STOP! THATS ILLEGAL!" whenever you committed a crime in front of them. That's what I imagine whenever I see someone load directly into the magazine of a Lee-Enfield, and then load it in lol.
The only thing more illegal would have been to reload the rifle by ejecting the magazine and putting in a fully loaded one 😂
Can we all just take the time to appreciate the velvety smoothness of adjusting that sight? The Brits made some damn fine rifles back then
They sure don't make em like they used to...
*Looks at L85*
My dad carried this rifle in the 60s when he was guarding a conflicted territory for 6 months, glad no firefight happened and he ended up hunting deers 😂, i remember he said he was so thirsty so he shot a group of 🥥 and they just kinda exploded and scattered everywhere 😂.. Powerful rifle!
Such a straight shooting rifle.
That's literally how guns should be. This might be due to the calm weather, non-windy, which affects the bullet's flight path.
I loved my 303 …supremely accurate with sniper barrel.
Do you mean heavy barrel the 1 that is a sniper or target rifle has a letter H and a T stamped on it, lot of fakes out there if yours was legitimate I would never sell it
From South Africa to Flanders Field, its appearance was always remarkable.
Could you include a view of aiming down the sights next time too?
Why didn’t Enfield ever chamfer the rims like on a .30-40 Krag? .30-40’s never get rimlock.
Old military .303 did have chamfered rims. For some reason most modern .303 does not.
Just so you know, its best to learn to load using the clip, that has been loaded properly. Rather than hand load the magazine, you still run the risk of putting a rim behind the round below.
I remember a time in the gun industry when no one wanted these rifles and they were $20 surplus rifles at my distributor in 1995. They are a fortune now
I used to buy 100 rounds of 303 at bisley camp for £20 uk. Strate out of a WW2 ammo box still in the bandolier made 1941 or 1942 depending on the day of purchase. Loved firing my No4.
My SMLE is an India produced variant from the Ishapore armory and was purpose built for the then new 7.62x51 Nato cartridge.
Mine too. Stamped 1968.
I like the voice of the bullets
Misha guns is slow, relaxing and has time to process what is going on but other channels are too fast
The old rimmed .303 was first loaded with compressed black powder in 1889.I noticed you had a mix of Winchester Power Point and Remington Core-Lokt ammo;nice.
A lot of ex military ammo in the 50s and 60s was powered by cordite, the later mk7 ammo had nitroes cellulose powder, the only problem with military 303 ammo is the berdan primer which makes for hard reloading unless you can get a berdan primer removal tool.
@@petertarasenko2504 Yes,and Cordite is erosive and very sensitive to temperature changes especially high temps.Also it deteriorates over time,I remember back in the '70s a warning was issued to not fire surplus .303 ammo loaded with Cordite because much of it had become unstable and a number of rifles were damaged or destroyed.
Beautiful rifle...still used in Australia by the military today sometimes for ceremonial purposes... Australian defence force still has a few thousand of these as well as the L1A1 SLR in surplus because you know...why not. And the Lithgow factory still produces firearms to this day (bolt action modernistic rifles for civilian) as well as the new Atrax bullpup rifle for the military.
I went to a gun shop, guy asked me of I was looking for anything in particular. I told him I'm always searching for used or military surplus. He goes, "Well, I do have this Lee Enfield-"
I immediately saw it and said "SOLD"
My favorite is still the No.4 Mk.1 but damn if this isn't a beaut
thanks for the video, very relaxing to watch, how far were you making those shots out to?
Lee-Enfield is my favorite bolt action rifle.
We aussies like to make a few changes to our British counterparts.
I like how you included that whole first part
Gotta love the speed loader device. I have used it for the m16 in the military.
Thats some nice bolt action 😏👍
The OG Lee Enfield
Its cool how you can see the bullet shockwave.
I have an 2 SMLE rifles from 1915. One is sadly a sporter that i used as my brush gun. They are amazing rifles
I love my Lithgow SMLE. It’s a 1940
I once owned 15 different variants of the Lee-Enfield.
映画の中の世界を観ている様な感覚です。

The puff of dust under the target suggests that the bullet ricochets off the plate and into the ground.
I love the short bolt throw

Average person: "wow great condition"
Me an intellectual: "so you missed the target 6 times?"
Очень точная винтовка. Качество изготовления супер ..
Good video,. Nice restoration on the rifle, wish it were mine .
Interesting how much trouble youre having with those striper clips, i know they can be finiky but this is the second vid youve had some trouble with yours
A very nicely filmed video
Learnt to shoot weapons on the Lee Enfield. 303 at the age of 10
Still remember an awesome accurate rifle.
Ps it did have a kick tho 😅
The stripper clip loading method you used is the best way to get rim lock
Yeah, you need to overlap the rims by loading from one side to avoid rim lock, as Davis notes. You also shouldn't be running soft points. The load ramp is steep and designed for FMJ's only. Eventually you'll mung up the breech with lead.
He loaded the stripper clip correctly.
Вековая легенда 👍
Nice gun looks like one of the JJ guns out of NY does it have any import marks?
My Grandpa showed up in Australia in 1941 via the US Holbrook one week after Pear Harbor was attacked !
That looks tricky... are you sure you don't want to use a Garand? 🤔
I'm from Australia and hunt wild pigs with my beloved .303. my grand parents used them ww2
I'd love to have a modern rifle chambered in .303 Enfield.
I am no gun expert,Why are bullets not directly on top of each other but at a small angle, almost next to each other?
Not a gun-enthusiast myself but that gun looks beautiful.
Must be quite heavy with all that wood no ?
This dude gonna change the magazine in the middle of war instead reloading with clips
It looks like the rifle from the long dark, am I wrong?
Still a great old bolt rifle. 🇨🇦
that stock looks thirsty for some BLO though
Love seeing that trail.
A very underrated weapon, I have one had it sportarized. I use it in heavy brush when I’m deer hunting.
I have used multiple times lee enfield chargers and they tend to work best for me if I load them like I load my mosin chargers. Traditional way of loading tends to be harder to feed to the magazine.
I actually own one of these. Mark 4. British
Old is gold 🪙....
