I'm from Ontario. Stumbled on to the site, I'm something of an Enfield fan, I reload all my own ammunition, so I don't have much used for the manufactured stuff, it often over-powered and over-rated.
I've no use for .22's, preferring to load down center-fires for small gaming. My preference is for break and bolt action. Slides, levers and semis tend to spread the empty cases about to much, so they are hard to find. I'm into both Enfields and Mausers.

good to have ya hear. i also very much so have a soft spot for bolt and brake action guns. i love single shots, i also load 303 cases with 200 gr bullets (cast by me in the molds i make) at 900fps with w231 powder. im just getting into mausers, i just bought a 43 mauser. but i do love 22's lol i have 5 of them. i shoot 100m with them, just target shoot with my buddies. 22 shorts at 100m are great fun i find, and even better when coming out of a no1mk3 rebarreled to .22

Welcome to the forum Gun Nut. This is a global community of people bitten by the Lee Enfield bug. I'm sure you'll fit in just fine!
I reload for my large calibre Enfields, but I also enjoy the .22 Enfields. You can surprise quite a few people at the range with these old trainers. Still plugging tight groups that some of the scoped modern stuff can't always equal.
It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice!
