Do you reload?

No, i do not reload, so far.... Probably a commercial reloader here will receive soon my order... But also for other rifles than our Lee-Enfields.. 
It was not necessary, too few ammo used in most calibers... And then there was an quite good commercial ammo-choice here available.. .
And i have to add i had a break in this hobby ca. 2007-2016.. Unfortunately Angry

Goosic.. I don't have an Envoy yet... Hopefully once. I used mainly the Lapua D46 185 grs Match in my D73 from London..

Now i try to replace resp. duplicate their RG L2-Service-Ammo... As an training/practical-ammo, as described.. . Factory Ammo like this is missing now..Confused

Do you own any Enfield rifle that would use the 7.62x51mm NATO cartridge?

In other words, unfortunately I didn't buy enough such MEN.. Or an similar ammunition.. Because of my inexperience 27, 28 Years ago... 

That could have made this search unnecessary... . True.

Take a 7 hour and 15 minute drive from Switzerland to Germany and go directly to MEN and demand that they sell you as much of their 147grn Sniper ammunition that you can afford. Once you have done that, stop into a bed and breakfast to rest for the night and to fawn over your new newly acquired ammunition direct from MEN. Wake up the following morning refreshed and drive home. You can also visit www.gunbroker.com type ".308 Winchester Ammo " into the search box and hit search. Find something you like and bid on it!! Bid on it until you win!!

Your search for ammo can continue on some other forum but please not here. Talk about and share with us your Enforcer. How you acquired it, your likes and dislikes about it. Show us pictures of it.  If it has the original Pecar scope, talk about that. Did any other accessories come with it and which target rear sight came with it? How did Parker Hale stamp it? Is it stamped, " Regulated by Parker Hale" and is their original wartime code M192 stamped on it anywhere? How long have you owned it and what kind of paperwork did you have to go through to keep it? You have an Enfield Enforcer for Christ Sakes! There are folk that would sell off the wife or first born to get their hands on that rifle. Talk about the Enfield!!!

I think this topic has run its course so I'm going to put it to bed at this point.
