While the 303 is a crap round for trying to take down an aircraft...
dont, forget, your convergence.
I havnt really checked to much on it in COD yet... but standard in IL2 was quite a bit out.
I prefer to do my gunning at under 200 yards. Depending on the aircraft, I usually set a convergence of between 150 and 200 yards.. and thats where I do my shooting.
If you are trying to hit the engine, (or any specific spot) convergence makes all the difference in the world. IF you are not flying AT your convergence distance, and put your cross hairs on the engine..you're going to miss it. Plain and simple. your bullets will either fly on either side of it.. or they will cross before the engine and still fly by on either side.
Having looked at it briefly in COD, it looks like you can set the convergence for each pair of guns (correct me if Im wrong) (also it looks like you can adjust elevation on COD which you couldnt in IL2)
In that case,you could set half at say 150 or 200. then the other half at 200-250 (depending on where you like to shoot from) That way you can get a good punch through a range of distance. 150 for one set.. 200 for the other. Gives you good hit power through a 50+ yard range.
whatever you decide though.. convergence is a big deal.
