What to know about .30-30 Winchester hunting ammo

The 150gr flat-nose soft point is the classic .30-30 deer load. It hits hard inside 150 yards where most lever-action hunting happens — in thick timber, on drives, and from tree stands over tight shooting lanes. The 170gr option hits harder at close range but drops faster. Flat-nose or round-nose bullets are required for tubular magazine safety — never load pointed (spitzer) bullets in a lever-action tube magazine.
