Good shout. I have read a fair bit about the old .303 case head separation issue. How do they work, where can I grab one?WelshShooter wrote:Would highly recommend getting a broken case removal tool as the rimmed .303 case is prone to case-head separation over the course of reloading. So far, I've had to use mine twice over 800 rounds, so it's not used often but it certainly allows you to keep shooting on a range day!
Hmm, I wonder if my .308 one will suffice?saddler wrote:Chamber cleaning stick....
I haven't yet, I'm not sure I'll need 10 of them... I should just bite the bullet and grab some.bnz41 wrote:Charging Clips (SMLE Style suitable for No. 5)
Did you not get the ones from ds-solutions they were the cheapest available I have seen for a long time. I bought some they are excellent.
I bought mine from DS Solutions but I just checked their website and they don't seem to have them. Check on eBay as they tend to come up every now and then.TattooedGun wrote:Good shout.

You chamber it like a round and close the bolt. The plug goes inside the remains of the case and when the botd is opened, it expands to grip the inside and pull it out. They were originally supplied in Bren tool wallets. Try searching 'burst case extractor' or 'clearing plug' on Fleabay (Remember to get a 303 one)bnz41 wrote:Good shout.
