I use the 160 grain FTX in a 300 savage.

I have repeatedly dispatched cow elk at 300to 400 yards. I imagine the velocities these bullets had would be similar to a 30/30 at 75 yards maybe even 100 yards. The Hornady FTX is truly a " game changer" in my mind for the 30/30 and 300 savage. I use leverever lotion powder for my reloads.
