« on: January 11, 2004, 11:05:38 AM »
I'll be loading 3 NON-TUBULAR magazined 30/30 rifles[clip fed/bolt action, single shot,rotary magazine] for fox and coyote.
I have some surplus 150gr and 110gr FMJ projectiles.
Suggested loads?
Thanks.

I have not loaded FMJ bullets, but have loaded Hornady 110g PSP's with 33g of IMR 4198, for a muzzle velocity of 2800 fps out of a Savage 340. I have had good luck loading 150g pointed bullets with H335, but had to seat them deep to work in the Savage. I have had better luck using Remington 125g psp's with 37.5g of H335 for a velocity of 2550. I realy like shooting this calibre.
