Judicious hollow pointing/hollow basing can get the relationship 'tween CG and CP correct which is crucial for accuracy.
CP = Centre of pressure

Re: Can use a 240gr cast bullet in Enfield No.4
A bullet designed to expand delivering at least 1750 ft/lbs is the english minimum for red?
The 303 with that bullet will deliver that easily at only 2000 fps.
Or have those deer society shysters added small print excluding cast bullets now?
