Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Elk Hunting 30-30 vs elk...... What bullet????

I have killed two big Arizona elk with my my Win 94. I used 170 grain Silvertip factory ammo for both.

I loaded up a bunch of 170 grain Hornday bullets for a friend's 94 in 32 Winchester which is basically the same thing. Those bullets killed two 500 lb bears in two years. The bullets held up remarkably well. If I were to reload for my 30 it would be that bullet; factory ammo, I will continue to use the Silvertips.
