Depends on which model (that was the overlap period between the MLE and SMLE, if I recall) and value will be driven by condition and originality- a sporterized rifle has a sharply reduced value. A SMLE in good condition may be worth $150-250. Excellent condition may double that.

Is a 303 British Rifle a Enfield rifle?

".303 British" is usually used to denote a caliber, as opposed to a specific firearm. Perhaps the most famous rifle in that caliber was the SMLE, which is the abbreviation for Short, Magazine, Lee Enfield. There were several marks and models of British military rifles that originated under that designation, all in that caliber. They were made from prior to WW I, and continued through the Commonwealth nations (and former Commonwealth nations) into about the 1960s. So, yes, the caliber .303 British and the Enfield name are linked- but Enfield is not the full name of the rifles and carbines. Run a Wikipedia search on SMLE for some more reading.


When did the British army stop using the Lee Enfield rifles?

They used the MLE (Magazine Lee-Enfield) version from 1895-1907 And they started using the SMLE (Short Magazine Lee-Enfied version in 1907 and still use it. There are various versions of the SMLE firing different calibre and such. They are also a popular hunting and competition rifle now. <><><><><> The Enfield No4 Mk 1 was replaced as a standard service rifle by the L1A1 about 1954. However, some are still in use today for special purposes.
