Ideas Wanted....30-30 with 150gr bullets in bolt action

H4831, I found some old reloads that I had done with VV 135 a few years back with 150gr Nos BT's. They shoot. And quick they are...... quicker than what I had marked when I did them and Chrony'd last time.

The H 4895 that I loaded as well the other day to try also shoot well and much faster than published in the Hornady reloading magazine.

Everything appears to look fine.

These are seated long to reach the lands. They do not fit in the mag. Far from it. Bit single load and shoot and I am more than pleased. To get it out of the chamber, since I single feed the mag is not in the rifle. When I open the bolt I just push it down and it falls out of the mag well.

Many pound of 135 to.play with as well as the H4895.

The dirty thirty is going to eat up some of my range time at the farm after visiting with family in the city.....
 
I'm surprised at the velocities you get. I use a loading chart to see what velocity they are supposed to go, then see if I can get enough powder in the case to get them up to speed.
