I thought if a 30-30 had a point then in the tube it is possible for a round to make another go off so why is there a 30-30 round with a point
For those 30-30 firearms that do not have a tube-fed magazine.I thought if a 30-30 had a point then in the tube it is possible for a round to make another go off so why is there a 30-30 round with a point
The only 30-30 ammo I ever seen with a point is the Hornady lever ammo and the tip on it flexesdeadeye199824 said:I thought if a 30-30 had a point then in the tube it is possible for a round to make another go off so why is there a 30-30 round with a point
That is Hornady's Leverevolution ammo (they also sell the bullets and the powder for those who roll their own).The only 30-30 ammo I ever seen with a point is the Hornady lever ammo and the tip on it flexes
The savage m99 was chambered in 30-30 along with a boat load of calibers I new they sold the bullets and powder for itVikingdad said:That is Hornady's Leverevolution ammo (they also sell the bullets and the powder for those who roll their own).
I do believe that there are some box fed magazine rifles, then there is also the Thompson Contender single-shot handgun for which you can get a 30-30 Winchester barrel.

The Lever Evolution ammo works great in a tube fed mag. The "average" round/soft point ammo has no problems that I've ever heard of. I know I've shot a bunch of the "normal" stuff and it's always worked well for me.Quick question, call me an idiot if you want, but would soft point, or hollow point for that matter, cause the .30-30. To tube fire as well? I have a marlin 30-30 and this is the first i've ever heard of a cartridge fire in the tube.
Soft point and hollow point are OK, as long as it is not a spitzer. What you are avoiding is striking the primer in the center (like a firing pin or hammer would do) so it will hit the anvil in the center of the primer (check out a reloading manual that has cutaway drawings of primers if this is not clear.)Quick question, call me an idiot if you want, but would soft point, or hollow point for that matter, cause the .30-30.
