Oregon trail 165gr flat base cast and 9.5 gr of Unique.
Shoots tight groups out of all 4 of my 30-30's
Punches nice clean holes thru small game.

lyman 160 flat nose cast gc with 8 grains of unique. and the lyman 130 round nose bevel base with the same powder charge. A 120 lfngc .312 lbt bullet sized down to 310 with 10 grains of unique. Those are a few of them. The unique can be substituded by universal clays power pistol, or herco using the same loading data.
