Do you also load black powder loads for your Lee Metford and Lee Enfield? I have a Martini Enfield that I am going to try with black powder loads.

Also here,escaping the overly PC SJWTube! Signed up and whitelisted in Ad Blocker.
Need to gear up to cast myself soon, this is why im re-visting, getting rather expensive feeding 3 Enfields! I grabbed a couple of boxs of the very pricey Woodleigh 215gr RNSN's , mostly to try in the Martini Enfield (I assume the sights are most likely for the older marks?) for shooting this years CFC. Ive got 25 loaded up for practice,hopefully shoot them this saturday weather being well.I will try them in my SMLE as well after, then move onto casting if results are good.

I haven't started to cast yet either. You can buy cast bullets in 200+ grains here in Canada. I will be trying them in my Martini Enfield in a few weeks. I'm also going to try black powder.
