Default Leverevolution ammo

Has anyone had any experience with this new "revolutionary" ammo. Specifically in 30-30 caliber. Is it real, or just a bunch of hype?

Default RE: Leverevolution ammo

I took my 2 336's in 35 to the local gravel pit last w/e and ran some thru both. They were set up with 200 gr winchester round nose at 100 dead on. I paced out the typical 100 steps (close enough to 100) shot a group of 3 each with the old ammo to confirm POI. Then moved on the LeverEvolution, it was shocking! The new POI was 6.5" high and a 2" group. One thing I did notice as well was the report. Much louder and a "different" sound. More like a crack the thump I am used to. IMHO, its the real deal at the range now lets see how the bullet performs on soft tissus and bone.
