Default RE: 180 grain or heavier bullet loads for a 30-30??

Even if you find that heavy of a bullet for the 30-30, they will be going so slow that they will not expand right, also they will drop like rocks.

The 30-30 case capicity is just too small, and actually you just don't need heavier bullets than 170 grain anyway. Use Federals Nosler Partition load, and it will do just fine on anything you "should" be useing a 30-30 on.
