[bighorn300wsm]

i have a savage model 340 in 30/30 and i am looking for load data for spire point bullets.i would like to be able to reach out a lil farther with it than the round nose bullets.

Welcome to GBO!! Several manuals have spitzer bullet data in their TC handgun loads, Hornady 6th, Lyman 48th, Nosler 5th and the $7-at-Walmart Hodgdon Annual to list some.

 Use caution as you are limited to a rather short cartrige overall length with the Savage 340. Not a problem with RN bullets but it makes the use of any spitzers somewhat more tricky.

I have had good success loading of a buddy Savage using the 130 spire point from Remington..bought them in bulk from Midway to use in my .300 Whisper..
