if thats a 150-170 grn projectile its pretty darn close to 30/30 so the flexytip 170grn could very well be worth a look,might give you better terminal preformance..... nosler 125grn ballistic tips are another that work great at slightly lower speed (they kill deer in x39mm bang flop)

I’ll be trying to bowl a deer with my 16” trapper 30-30, in just over a week, 160gr flextips.

Yeah thats with 150gr Fusions. Ill run a few different rounds through the chronny when it gets back. I should still be able to shoot out to 400m @ 14” so ill see what will be best for that
