Hornady 140 grain MonoFlex for 30-30 ? - 07/16/21
Howdy - has anyone here used this "mono-metal" bullet intended specifically for the 30-30 cartridge?
I'm curious about it. Are there any handloading considerations? Any rifle considerations? Any worries about using it on deer-sized game - like will it fail to expand?
With the 30-30 I've always used conventional 150 and 170 grain flat-nose or round nose soft point lead-core bullets at normal lever-action 30-30 velocity. Thinking I'd like to give the 140 MonoFlex a try.
Thanks! Guy
