'''.303 British''' (or more rarely, '''7.7x56mm R''') is a rifle cartridge developed in December 1888 and adopted in 1889 by the British military as the standard service rifle cartridge. Initially a blackpowder cartridge, it transitioned to smokeless powder in 1891, with the adoption of ''cordite'', a solid, stick-shaped propellant for which this cartridge is famous for using, although more modern factory loads employ more recent flake powder. .303 British is perhaps most famous for being the caliber in which the '''Short Magazine Lee-Enfield''' is chambered for.
