30-30....limit shots on game to 50 yards, not because 30-30 isn't capable but because your dealing with the mind of a 9 year old. Teach him to get close to game. Don't scope a lever. If you can find a used Savage 340 bolt gun in 30-30 buy it!

To answer the tread...it's not

I think the video has merit and but really agree with Rosebud.....he's just pointing out that many hunters/shooters are fooling themselves when they make claim to their MOA shooting rifles.

Belgium Browning BAR Grade I '06. Bought at Van Lunens in 1986. I was a junior in HS. My 1st upgrade for West Virginia deer season from carrying a 30-30. Carried that rifle for decades in Pleasants and Richie County and killed deer like lightning with it. Took it out on the range last week...

I do not disagree. Please read the title of the thread and my written words.

I'm assuming you've never seen a Savage model 340 chambered in 30-30.

Any NON-PREMIUM lead tipped bullet from Sierra, Hornady or Speer is perfect......I load interlocks mostly. Winchester PowerPoints and Rem. Core-loks are absolutely as good as any for what you described. Premium bullets for what you describe are just marketing, publishing filler and...

Now I remember why I took a sabbatical

Recentl, my aging uncle generously gifted some rifles to his nephews. I was blessed with a sporterized Siamese Mauser 45-70 out of his collection. I discovered the same issue with bullets popping up. I ended up polishing the magazine and follower everywhere I could and started using nickel...

Sold it......couldn't take it anymore

After reading this thread I think I had a goof ball trying to scam me. He couldn't tell I had components for sale...30 cal bullets. Said he wanted my loaded ammo....kept calling them slugs and wanted to communicate via text only...and I wouldn't so he kept asking dumb questions I think hoping...

Bags for me

Anyone have success with these 275 gr. bullets. I have a scoped long barrel Raging Bull and short barrel BFR to try them out. I have been stuck on the 325 gr. XTP and Deep Curls but thinking these may be a better deer bullets in the Bull and easier to one hand the BFR. Typically I load the...
