30-30 Win – 170 gr SP Remington (R30302-27820) – 200 Rounds

Remington Core-Lokt in 30-30 is about as traditional as deer hunting ammunition gets, and the 170 grain bullet is the heavier choice for the cartridge. This listing is Remington Core-Lokt 30-30 Winchester 170 grain soft point ammo, MPN R30302 (Remington item 27820), sold as a 200 round case for deer leases, hunting clubs, and families who all shoot 30-30s. It is also a natural choice for anyone restocking after years of shooting the same load.

Remington rates this load at 2,200 fps with 1,827 ft-lbs of muzzle energy. The Core-Lokt soft point uses a jacket that is progressively tapered and locked to the core, which controls expansion and helps keep the bullet together for deep penetration. The 170 grain flat nose design is built for tubular magazines and gives solid performance on whitetail, hogs, and black bear inside typical brush ranges. This is a hunting load, not practice ammunition.

It fits rifles chambered in 30-30 Winchester, including the Marlin 336, Winchester Model 94, Henry Side Gate, Henry Steel, and Henry Single Shot, Mossberg 464, Rossi R95, and Thompson Center Contender barrels. A common question is what range a 30-30 is effective on deer. Most hunters keep shots inside about 150 yards because of the flat nose bullet and modest velocity. Another common question is whether pointed bullets can be used in a lever gun. Not in standard tubular magazines. Use flat nose loads like this one, or soft tipped bullets specifically designed for tube magazines.

Remington R30302 is new production ammunition, not reloads, made in the USA. Cases are reloadable brass with boxer primers, and the load is non-corrosive. This listing ships as 10 boxes of 20 rounds, 200 total, from one lot, so every rifle in camp can be zeroed and hunted with the same Core-Lokt. Twenty-round boxes make it easy to share among several hunters. Store the case cool and dry and it will serve several seasons of hunting.
