Thread: anyone hunted with a 30 30

Yes, but with mixed results.

I rarely used .357mag ammo in it, mainly using it with .38spl ammo. To get a bang-flop kill I found that it had to be an Atlas-joint shot. I only shot a handful of deer that I can remember with the .38spl. I do remember trying neck shots for a while, but with no shocking power I lost a few when I didn't hit bone, so gave up on it for that kind of hunting.
