Assuming you mean a rifle such as the SMLE, the cartridge used in the .303 Enfield, also called .303 British. See the link below for information on this ammo. However, if you are not certain (some military surplus rifles were rebarreled into other calibers) have a gunsmith take a look at it.

The .30-06 Springfield cartridge is generally considered larger than the .303 British cartridge. The .30-06 has a bullet diameter of .308 inches and a case length of 63mm, while the .303 British has a bullet diameter of .311 inches and a case length of 76.2mm.
