History of the .333 Jeffery, Rimless cartridge:
The .333 Jeffery or .333 Nitro Express, rimmed and rimless versions were developed by W.J. Jeffery & Co and the rimmed version was introduced in 1908, and the rimless version sometime after that date.
In the mid 1910’s the British War Office purchased sporting rifles from British rifle makers in the .333 Jeffery caliber for used by British snipers against the Germans, also making this a military cartridge.
Both the rimless and rimmed versions are obsolete, accept for a few special runs by a few manufactures, but not in some time.
