The range my buddy shoots at allows people to scrounge the brass buckets. He goes up a week or so before deer season and picks 30-30 out for me. He picked 300 cases and got tired. Then I gave a friend 15-20 pounds of mono type to cast bullets, and he gave me another 300 cases. So, I use 30-30. I think we did have to trim them a bit. Mine is showing some head space issues, the primers are popping a little. Since this one has an original Malcolm scope on it , shooting it a lot is not high on my list of things to do. I'd like to pick up another one for a shooter. I do plan on taking a deer with the Malcolm this year, as a start on the Savage slam, Joe.
