That works, but it means you have to get head on passes every time to stand a decent chance of getting a kill, although it is possible to knock out engines as well. Where the .303s really lose out though is against fighters, because a Bf109E with 2x20mm plus 2x7.92mm guns can get crippling snap shots off against a Spitfire or Hurricane, while you need to get very lucky or put a lot of .303 rounds into a Bf109 to get any decent damage.
