Olong, I don’t know where you hunt or how far you shoot, but I have been toying with a .30-30 Contender for a bit more than 20 years. 22” barrel that shoots sub MOA routinely. Haven’t found a bullet that won’t kill yet. Sierra 130 gr FN/150 gr spitzers and Hornady 150-170 RN/FN all do the trick. Nosler BT and Partitions do the trick as well.
Also don’t know which Contender model you’re using. The G2 can run faster that the G1. I hit the wall at about 2400 FPS w/150 gr bullets in my G1.
