most guys use 30-30's for whitetails where my family and I hunt. West Michigan. as far as distance...depends on how familiar you are with the gun/ammunition. about 200yds would be my max for that cartridge.
Yep, same here. I took an 8pt. this last season at 187yds. He ran about 30 yards and dumped. I have seen an antelope taken at 300 yards with a 30-30 using this new Hornady Leverevolution ammo. I have been using levers for 43 years and have never seen such impressive kills untill this new LE ammo with leverguns.
