Frequently Asked Questions
Federal 30-30 Ammo 150 Grain for Sale
Is 150 or 170 grain 30/30 better?
150 grain shoots flatter with less drop, making it better for longer shots. 170 grain hits harder and is preferred for close-range work and larger game. Both are effective for deer. Test both in your rifle and choose whichever groups tighter at your typical hunting distance.
How much does a 3030 drop at 150 yards?
A 150 grain .30-30 load zeroed at 100 yards drops roughly 5 inches at 150 yards. A 170 grain load drops slightly more, around 5.5 to 6 inches. Exact figures vary by ammunition and conditions, so consult your specific load's ballistic chart.
What's the best 30/30 round for deer?
For deer, Hornady LEVERevolution 160 grain and Federal HammerDown 150 grain are top choices, offering better ballistics than traditional flat-point loads. Remington Core-Lokt 150 or 170 grain remains a proven, affordable option. Test several loads at your intended hunting distance to find what your rifle shoots most accurately.
How far can a 30/30 shoot a deer?
Most hunters effectively shoot deer with a .30-30 out to 200 yards, though 250 yards is possible with practice and modern ammunition like polymer-tipped bullets. Beyond that, bullet drop becomes severe. A 160-yard zero balances point-blank range with manageable holdover for typical hunting scenarios.
Where is the best place to shoot a deer with a 30/30?
Aim for the heart-lung area on a broadside deer, just behind the front shoulder, roughly one-third up from the bottom of the chest. This large vital zone drops deer quickly. Quartering-away shots also work well. Avoid head or neck shots, which offer small targets and risk wounding.
Are federal fusion bullets any good?
Federal Fusion bullets perform well for deer hunting. The bonded lead core and copper jacket resist separation, delivering reliable expansion and roughly 90% weight retention. Shooters report good accuracy and penetration. At around $32 per box, they're a solid value for hunters who want dependable terminal performance.
What is the best distance to zero a 30/30?
Most hunters zero a .30-30 at 100 yards, which is simple and practical for shots under 150 yards. For maximum point blank range, zeroing at 160 yards works better, extending effective range well beyond 150 yards. Your best zero depends on your hunting terrain and expected shot distances.
