I, like Tikirocker
would have to say .303 british over the 7.62x51
1st of all the rifle on my back would be an enfield wether it was a .303 or a newer .308 enfield. If you look at the rounds side by side you can tell why, yes the .303 is slightly smaller but it packs more gunpowder because its 5MMs longer. They're both good calibers and i would use either in battle as long as they were coming out of an enfield or m14 barrel
