Someone mentioned Brian Dick, yep he's the Enfield guru in the states. Long time friend as well. He lives exactly 50 miles from me.

I rebarreled a P14 a few years back with a No 7 Douglas barrel. I found a Keith Francis reamer on ebay and I headspaced the rifle to snug on Greek 303brass and short cut the chamber to double headspace (snug) on the case shoulder.

This way the chances of losing cases is greatly reduced and it shoots very well.

I also changed out the striker and put in a 1917 and that eliminates the punctured primer problem.
