| who has them and who has the best deal on them right now? |

That's probably where I'd buy them. I bought ten or so and then I bought several bandoliers of HXP that came on chargers. Got plenty now. If you are not careful with them you will get jams with the rims. I'm kind of anti-charger with rimmed ammo.<G> Dennis Jenkins

.303 chargers have to be loaded in a specific manner to work properly, and even then they can be tricky. Some of the older phosphate finished ones are a bit rough and don't feed smoothly. To load them, insert the first round, then the 2nd. Stagger the rim of the 2nd round over the 1st, then let the rim of the 3rd round stagger overtop of the 2nd.....repeat so that they go under/over/under/over/under. Try it that way and see how easily they slip right out. If it's still tough to get them out, try tumbling your strippers with some rock-polishing media. I do a lot of fast charging in competition, and I can get my charging very smooth with a polished stripper clip and proper staggering. |

I'm kind of klutzy and just for normal purposes I just like to insert the rounds normally. I do understand how to use chargers though.<G> Just now figured out how to use the aftermarket MN strippers that everyone complains about. Dennis Jenkins
