gumpokc,
First, my cast bullet is the Lyman #311467. For jacketed loads, I use a 150 spitzer ahead of a mild (low end) charge of H414 that keeps the pressure below 40,000. I use the term "clone" loosely to indicate a "look-alike" or a direct desendent rather than a rework. Maybe some were reworked by the Indians, but all rifles and carbines I have examined were new manufacture.
I have seen those MkIIIs in .410 bore and read an article they were made up for prison guards around the time of WWII.
Arcturus,
I assume the Indian Army used their standard .308 Ball load in the rifles. I have not read where they are unsafe with Ball, but I do not shoot US Ball in my Indian .308s.
Gil,
I read where the Indian Army used the bolt .308s until they got enough FN FAL rifles issued.
