Default RE: 30-30 Hornady

I have been curious about that round. It kinda scares me to put pointed bullets head to butt in a mag tube. I know it has the polymer tip, but still weirds me out. I have one in my truck right now. A friend of mine wanted to try them on hogs last week. He never got a shot, so we dont know. Im curious how they work.

Back in the 80s, I use to load a searra in my 30-30. The only problem was, you couldnt have but two bullets in your gun. One in the chamber and one in the mag. It worked great on deer. I dont use my 30-30 much anymore. I have grown fond of my 300 wby and 30-06. I use my 30-30 as a loaner. It still gets use, but by other people. Its still a great gun. Nothing wrong with a good old 30-30
