As fond as we all are of the .303, I think we're all adult enough to accept it's not a superbly accurate target round in the today's era, when people have come to expect - nay, demand 1 MOA out-of-the-box accuracy with modern rifles.

A .303 is still perfectly accurate for target shooting and hunting, of course!

Having said that, I know there are countless numbers of .303s set up for range use (with specialist target sights) in Australiaicon - there's always a few in the racks at the rifle ranges I've been to - but my observations are they aren't generally being used for many Serious Competitions anymore, outside the accurised division of some of the Service Rifle competitions.*

*I'm fully expecting someone to come along and tell me their club has a full Lee-Enfield Range Rifle competition which has dozens of regular shooters with people regularly coming in from the other side of the country to compete, of course.
