I see that Buffalo Big Bore Ammo makes a 30-30 cartridge in 190 grain at 2100 fps. Remington Core Lokt, my usual go-to round comes in 170 grain at 2200 fps. If I were to hunt elk with a 30-30, which would be better? (mainly if my son were to carry my 30-30. He's small) Will the 20 extra grains make enough difference to negate the loss of 100 fps? (assume shots are under 100 yards)
Does anyone else make a heavy/fast load that will penetrate elk sufficiently?
