Ps: with the hornady Ammo for the 30-30 they claim no bullet drop to 200yards and only 16inchs at 300yards with 1699velocity/1025ft.lbs. @ 300yards
A claim which is impossible. Gravity effects the round immediately after leaving the barrel. You can easily sight the 30-30 for a 200 yard zero but the round will be higher between the muzzle and 200 yards and dropping long before 200 yards. The 30-30 is not known as a very flat shooting round.
