I have a 1942 English Mk1 No4 Long Branch .303 with the original 300 and 600 yard peeps. I had a member tell me they were 172 grain ball point loads, I just want to see if anyone can verify it. I'd like to use it for a brush gun with open sights for whitetail, but not at the expense of a massive entry and exit wound. Anyone hear of any rounds that shoot true with the original peeps that would be okay to use on medium game as i mentioned? I apologize if this is in the wrong forum, but it seemed like my best shot.
