So I am waiting on the Lyman 311041 173 grain mold to be available for the 30-30. I also might try this for a while in the 30.06 and see if I like it, but I was looking for a larger bullet for the 30.06. I looked at the 311299 which is 200 gr but it is a RN bullet and I wanted more of a FP bullet. I want this more for hunting than long range target shooting. Some areas we hunt are also thick I just think a FP bullet would handle a few sticks and probably deform faster and kill better.
Anyone have an suggestions on a gas checked, large, FP bullet? The largest I have seen was a Saeco at about 180 gr but 173 to 180 is not worth the extra mold to me.
