Default RE: 30-30 And Shoulder Shots

My 30/30 is practically the only rifle I use for deer hunting. For me it would be hard to find a better rifle. I don't go for the shoulder shots with it but it should do well on the shoulder at reasonable range with the right round.
I use the Corelokt and the Leverevolution . . . .I won't speak for the Leverevolution for a shoulder shot as I hav'nt been using them long enough to know whether they would hold up to penetrate both shoulders or not. I know that the Corelokt will.
Actually, this is the first yr that I have been using the Leverevolution but so far I am well pleased with the round. I've killed three with it this yr . . .it seems to fragment causing a lot of damage when going for a lung shot. . . .Still, I may go back to the Corelokt. The beauty of these two rounds in my rifle tho is that they bot zero the same.
