Found a old thread called Rabbit Rollers by Dumpstick.

Rabbit Rollers with the .30-30

When I was at the last ENS in Mustang, I was talking with....uh....whomever it was, and I mentioned my low-power .30-30 loads. Interest was expressed. I figured I would give out some info on what I've been messing with. Lee TL314-90SWC, cast fairly soft - 50/50 CWW/RL. Sized .311, tumbled in...

I picked up a Lyman 311008 a few years ago and becides loading it in 32 magnum, I had to load some up for a Ruger Blackhawk 30 carbine and a old waffle top Marlin 30-30!

Popper loads can be a lot of fun!

My first mold was a RCBS 82034, a 38 158gn rn

Been quite a while now (January 2010), but a club by me was having a 100 yard centerfire cowboy rifle shoot, and I got the bright idea to load up some of these with 6gn of BullsEye for my marlin 35 rem.



Stopped at a friends to use his range on the morning of the shoot to get sighted in and crono'd these at 1175avg!

Got all dialed in and went to the shoot, and got the high score that day, (262)!

A lotta fun!

I got a bunch of 115gr powder coated bullets to load in .30Carbine.

Got to thinking (rare occasion) and decided to load some of the bullets in .30-30 with 9gr of Trail Boss. Youngest grandson (9yo) had a great time shooting Papa's cowboy gun. Increased load to get 2400fps and he took his deer, opening morning.

Older grandson (16) wanted a .30-06. Recoil was more than he wanted. He had gotten a box of 180gr Hog Hammers. Loaded a few with 16gr of Trail Boss. Very mild recoil and 1" accuracy. Great practice on turtles. He now loves shooting his '06.
