CIL used to make a bronze tipped hunting bullet. The plastic tipper rounds sound like CIL or Imperial (a CIL brand) Sabre tips. Theywere pretty good deer rounds. These were forerunners of the plastic tips common today and seemed to work very well at the modest .303 Brit velocity.
With 150, 180 and 215 grain loads the .303 is good for deer, bear, elk and moose. For deer on the open prairies I used 150's.
