What is the main purpose of light bullets (sub 150 gr.) in 30 WCF???
There is some commercial offering in 125 gr. hollow point (~2550 fps advertised) and the Hodgdon reloading data include the 110 gr. bullets at ~2700 fps.
I noticed that the advertised trajectory of the 125 gr. hollow point is not noticeably different than the regular 150 gr.
The 110 gr. soft point bullets for the 30-30 are the same bullet used for the 30 Carbine??
Are these light bullets used mainly for varmint?? But because the 30-30 is definitely not a flat shooting cartridge, it should be not ideal for serious (read long distance) varminting right??
Regards
