Can these Hornaby rounds be bought in hollow point? I am strictly a 30-30 Marlin man as well and wouldn't mind checking them out. The range I go to is only 50 yds but I'm getting groups of 1" with Winchester 150 gr.H.P.
IbelieveHornadys whole point of the polymer tip is better aerodynamicsthan hollow points and flat noses.

If I hunt with my 30-30 this year (which I probably will), I will be shooting the Leverevolutions. I had a couple of bad experiences with hollow points and soft points last season and have been looking for a new bullet anyway. The added range with these bullets really doesn't excite me much because I personallyonly intend my 30-30for 100 yard or less situations. If I want to shoot 200 yards or know a 200 yard shot might present itself, I will take my 300 WSM. I firmly believe that the 200 yard claimwill wind upmaking alot of people chase wounded deer by trying questionable shots from their 30-30's. My 2 cents.
