The Gillott 303 is a pointed nib that is excellent for Copperplate calligraphy. This nib has the perfect flexibility: it's not too stiff or too rubbery, although it performs best under a light hand. The 303 is very sharp and is best used on smooth papers, but can operate on lightly textured surfaces under an expert hand.
Endorsed by Eleanor Winters in Mastering Copperplate Calligraphy along with the Gillott 404. This nib is ideal for intermediate or advanced level calligraphers and is not recommended for beginners.

Gillott 303 nib review
This nib can write incredibly thinly, but still with decent contrast in strokes. I've found this nib is highly susceptible to catching on papers that are not incredibly smooth, even on bristol smooth or blick smooth bristol paper. wonderful for letter writing.

Doré
I've experimented with this pen nib and I love it for a specific reason, it was really nice to try to imitate Gustave Doré thin-to-thick wavy lines with it. It's flexible but not so easily to the point of of mistakenly make a thick line, and I'd love to write more with it on next opportunities, because it has smoother O's shapes for writing too even when keeping really good thin lines.
