It had a ten-round magazine and fired the British .303 Cartridge. The original Lee Enfield known as the MLE had a weight of 4.1 kg and a length of 126 cm. The MLE also had a muzzle veloctiy of 744 meters per second and a rate of fire of 20 rounds per minute. The MLE had a good rate of fire for a bolt action rifle and this is what allowed it to continue service with the Royal Army for decades. Although sufficient for the time, the length of the rifle eventually proved to be quite a problem as infantry tactics evolved and changed for more mobile solutions.
