kelbro Report post Posted March 29, 2006 No but I plan to. My '94 30-30 has the same POI for both 150gr and 170gr so I'm a little leary of new stuff but I will at least try it out. I don't really need the extra range accuracy with this gun because it is open-sighted and I can't see well enough any more to try a shot much past 120 yds with it. If you're shooting a scoped rifle and want to reach out there past 150 yds, these may be just the ticket. That rifle in the video must be a .4xx or something, it really has a kick to it!

Chef Report post Posted April 10, 2006 I think the 30-30 has the most to gain from this new ammo. I understand your thoughts on open sights and distance but it is nice to know that if something comes out at 175 yards, you can still aim for fur and feel confident of the outcome. That rifle in the video seems to be chambered in 45-70. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

azpackhorse Report post Posted April 11, 2006 I looked for this ammo at Sportsmans Wharehouse but they did not have it, I have an old Model 94 that I like to carry when scouting and such that I would like to try the ammo in. I have been wanting to use my old 94 on a Coues hunt and this ammo would help I'm sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chef Report post Posted April 12, 2006 I was in Sportsman's about two weeks ago in Mesa and they had it in 30-30 Win and .35 Rem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
