The various 30-30 170 grain round nose flat points worked really well in my 308 pushed to moderate velocities. Soft enough for deer hard enough for Hogs and if anything the flat tip added to the leathality like a wad cutter or flat nosed solid.

Forgot what the velocity was but about 2300-2400 is my guess. I used a medium charge of 4350 for this. Another one to look for is the 200 grain bullet for the 300 Savage. Haven't shot this one but I believe Sam Fadala liked to use them for culling.

The Corelokt is never a bad choice either if you can find them. Last I found were the old style pre-bean counter type with a double tapered jacket.
