Daryl - The .303 British (military) was originally designed for smokeless (Cordite)

IIRC the only reason for the Mark I/II Black powder rounds was a problem with the supply of smokeless cartridges

For interest, in order to get the cordite in, it was loaded into the straight case, then the case bottleneck formed with the cordite in it
