Anybody load pointed .308 caliber bullets in .30-30 cartridges used in a lever-gun?
I know. I know. You're only supposed to use blunt nosed bullets in a lever action.
However, it would be safe if you only used the lever-gun as a single shot or only loaded one round in the tubular magazine. I'm very careful and would rarely need more than 2 rounds.
I'm sure somebody out there does it. What are the OAL restrictions or any other loading considerations? Any other recommendations or resources?
