My vote is to use that load too, as it shoots well and as was said, at 30-30 V they will do fine...

When i was a kid, my dad took me out to a high spot in a big blueberrymarsh, waaay before daylite, and sat me by a tree to wait for a bear to come along. Ihad a30-30 loaded with 170 Rems in my hands, as i leaned against that tree waiting for daybreak....

I probably sat there 1/2 hr.before it started to break daylight, and it was absolutely "dead quiet", no wind or anything... I sat there quietly, and all of a sudden several grouse flew out of the tree i was leaning on!!!Idamn near filled my pants... ha ha ha

I'll never forget that day, ever....
