Powder for loading 30 30 rounds .

[bydabeav]

I am using the 140GR Hornady bullets with red tips in my 30-30 and I am using 34 Grains of Leverevolution powder. Seems to work well, I'll send pic of how the deer felt about it in November

Am I the only one using IMR3031?

Kazman, forgot to say. If you're going to be loading 30-30 do yourself a favor right away and buy a Lee factory crimp die. It makes things soooooooo much easier. Trying to crimp with a bullet seating die is just an exercise in frustration.

Ain't that the truth!
I wish I knew this a few years ago.

No, it's just that everyone is trying to re-invent the wheel

Nope! Re-read my post #11 on this thread.

Don't see it mentioned but Reloader 7 works good in the thutty-thutty.

With the Lee die I even crimp berry's bullets for plinking and they don't have a cannelure.

Highly recommended investment.

Thanks . I will see if my local shop has them in stock .
