Thanks again for all the tidbits of knowledge, some of you obviously know your Enfields very well, far better than I do!

As for ammunition, the shop I got the rifle thru, (a local dealer had to receive it and do the paperwork as it was bought online) usually carries .303 ammo. It's also pretty easily found online, I've purchased some from 2 of the larger online gun/outdoors suppliers. Have a box on order that should be delivered either today or tomorrow in fact. I don't like paying the shipping but there's no sales tax so it pretty much equals out.

Thanks for the tip about the reloads. I'll look into that. The range I hope to be shooting it at this weekend has a pretty well stocked reloading shop onsite, I'll be talking to them about my options.

Off to buy a slip on recoil pad...;^)
