Classic western Lever gun?
Many hunters assume that the old 30-30 is a short range brush cartridge. But by hand loading the Sierra spitzer 125 grain bullets, shots out to about 250 yards are within reason. I sight in for a zero of three inches high at 100 yards. This makes for a decent antelope rifle assuming scope... -
