Is Woodleigh the only company making a 215 projectile? And is the 215 more beneficial on game gemsbok/wildebeest/zebra size?
Not having gone to Africa but taking a sambar stag in Aus (that I'm thinking is about the same size) with the 303, would I be better off using the 215 on the African game or would the 180 be fine to use as I had no problems with them on the stag.

Most guys here use 180s but I do know of at least one guy I spoke with years ago that liked the heavier bullets. The heavier weight would exacerbate the rainbow trajectory on the longer shots but either way you should be fine. I haven't yet met anyone using premier type hard bullets in the .303, so it would appear that the standard old fashioned soft points are getting it done..... I have personally not hunted with the .303 but I have hunted in camps with several guys that have. Lots of moose have been taken with it.
