Bullet question???

[74man]

I have some Hornaday 150 Gr. Round Nose bullets on the way and I want to load them in my .30-30 cases. I would like to know about load data. I have load data using 150 grain Speer Flat Point bullets and I have the powders for that bullet but I cannot find any load data using the Hornaday 150 Gr. Round Nose bullet. Can I use the same data (as far as powders are concerned) as the Speer Flat Point bullet but swap the Hornaday 150 gr. round nose bullet in the .30-30 cases? Thanks all, 74man

Got a SKU#? Link? Something more to go on? It's really hard to answer questions with so little information. As has been mentioned numerous times previous.

From the loadbooksusa manual.

Yes, you can.

Start at minimal loading and work up, as usual.

Myth or no, I'm not sure I'd be comfortable running that profile in a lever gun in .30-30. Lot of recoil, and think the LRP has enough area to make good contact with a .30 cal RN. I'd do it in a 45 colt or .45-70, but I think I'd pass in a .30-30. I always opt for a flat point on my .30-30. Honestly, I've not seen much RN load data for .30-30. I'll look in my books for you. IN the mean time, try your powder company, most of great load data. load data dot com is good too and worth the measely 30 bucks a year or whatever it costs.

GDF. The Hornaday is the #3035 Round nose bullet!!

You can mail them to Me. I’ll load them up and can report back the findings!!
We use the round nose bullets in 30-30 over H335.
Will have to look in My book but it’s around 30 gr of powder we use.

Before the FTX series came out Hornady advertised the #3035 as a .30-30 medium game bullet.
Q: Why make the people trying to help you guess and drag information out? You ordered them. Post a link. Is it really that hard?

Might help to verify you have a tubular magazine like we all are assuming.

I have load data using 150 grain Speer Flat Point bullets and I have the powders for that bullet. . .

And there it is! Seat to cannelure, start at Start, and go.
