There are many types of .303 rifles. Perhaps the most famous is the British Lee-Enfield series, beginning with the No. 1 Mk1, ending with the No. 4 MkII. This famous rifle was the evolution of the bolt action design of James Paris Lee, a British (Scottish-born who later became Canadian) inventor and the famous Royal Small Arms factory in Enfield, England who designed the square-shaped rifling system.
The '.303 British' is the most famous calibre used in these rifles and went on to become the most widely sold rifle and calibre in history.
