Nowadays, a lot of people don't know what a .30 WCF is but everybody has heard of .30-30.
Marlin. Remington never chambered the 30-30

I have seen .30-30s in Remington bolt-actions rifles made in the 50s. A friend of mine had one, he searched for years for it. He said it was a very rare bird.


Bet it was 30 Remington not 30-30 Winchester. They look similar. Believe it was first chambered in the Model 8

The .30 Remington cartridge was created in 1906 by Remington Arms. It was Remington's rimless answer to the popular .30-30 Winchester cartridge. Factory ammunition was produced until the late 1980s, but now it is a prospect for handloaders. Load data for the .30-30 Winchester can be used safely for the .30 Remington.
