Best Answer

Assuming you have a Golden State Arms Santa Fe Model 1944 rifle here. Golden State Arms didn't manufacture rifles - they bought surplus military rifles, and sporterised them. What you have is PROBABLY a surplus Short Magazine Lee Enfield rifle, and would be chambered for the 7.7x56R cartridge, also known as the .303 British. However, if you're not certain about the calibre, then you need to take it to a gunsmith to have them measure out the chamber - not all of the Santa Fe rifles retained their original .303 cartridge, and, although less common, rifles converted to .308 Winchester and .45-70 are not unheard of.

What is the proper ammo for a Remington model 16 autoloading 22?

this ammo is one of a kind. it will only fit a remington 16 22 caliber autoloading rifle. the model 16 was the very first 22 cal. automatic remington produced. they made this special ammo. because all prior 22 ammo was blackpowder. the model 16 was gas opperated and black powder would plug and corrode the gas tubes. thus the 22 cal. autoloading. this ammo was made to fit this rifle and this rifle only. it was a 45 grain bullet that would average 900 fps. this round fool proofed the model 16.

The marlin model 1893 rifle was only made from 1893-1936.It was the first Marlin rifle made for smokeless powder.I would say that your rifle was not made in 1946 though.You may have a Marlin model 36 rifle,which would handle any commericial made ammo on the market today.
