British .303

[Murf]

The P 14 was sold to the Brit when theyhad a real shortage of rifles early in WW I. Theyare considered a quite good rifle but to sporterise one involves a lot of work. As stated many were stripped and the actions used for custom rifles chambered in some very hot for their day rimmed magnums.

One possible problem for a hunting rifle is that the .303 being a rimmed cartridge is prone to jams unless care is taken while loading to ensure the rim of each cartridge is ahead of the one below it in the mag. The army never had this problem as they used stripper clips for loading.
Also as stated above the P 17 is very similar. When the US entered WW I they also had a shortage of rifles and P 17's were developed to use the 30-06 rimless cartridge since not enough Springfields were available. Alvin York used a P 17.

Any scope system for a Lee Enfield No 1 Mk3 or No4 Mk1 will not work on a P14 as they are totally different actions.
